Oak Double Pedestal Desk

This is a substantial double pedestal desk, likely constructed from solid oak or an oak veneer over a solid wood core, given its visible grain pattern and warm medium-brown finish. The desk features a classic rectangular top with a subtle rounded edge, showing some signs of wear consistent with age and use, including minor surface scratches and possibly slight discoloration in areas, though the overall finish appears intact. Both pedestals house a series of drawers, with the left pedestal appearing to have four drawers, and the right pedestal having four smaller drawers, possibly including a top drawer designed for stationery or a pencil tray, and deeper drawers below for files. The drawer fronts feature a raised panel design with distinctive carved wooden pull handles that curve outwards, suggesting a craftsman or mission-style influence. The desk has a kneehole space in the center, facilitating comfortable seating. The construction appears sturdy, indicative of a piece designed for durability. There are no visible manufacturer's marks or signatures in the provided images. Based on the style of the drawer pulls and the robust construction, this desk likely dates from the mid-20th century, possibly 1950s-1970s. The overall condition suggests regular use but also good maintenance, with a pleasant patina developed over time.
