This very campaign writing desk is a rarely seen Edwardian travelling writing desk .It is in the Sheraton style and features magnificent satinwood inlay to its panels. The work of inlay is very elegant.

It comes in 2 halves : a lower section that consists of a wide spring loaded door as well as 2 cupboards each hiding another drawer. The upper section is fitted with large brass campaign style handles to its sides and has a lid that allows the front to drop down, exposing the travelling desk. Within the upper section, there are 9 little drawers, filing slots and hooks as well as an inkwell and brush. It has a clock fitted to the central void. It might not be the original clock but it fits perfectly well and is in working order.

It locks thanks to its 4 keys.

Being over 100 years old, there is some very light damage in the form of some splitting to the front of the drop down panel, a small dent to the edge of the drop down panel that can’t be directly seen in either the open or closed setup, as well as some wear to the leather . Other than the above, it is still a lovely and spectacular piece with wear consistent to age.
