A completely refurbished and modernized, yet vintage oak writing bureau. A desirable piece with a drop-down front and a spacious pull-out workspace including a letter rack that can be used for stationery, books, etc. Ample storage provided in the four good-sized drawers below the workstation.
Close-up when not in use and it still makes for a beautiful piece.
We have stripped this cabinet off it's old varnish and stains, removed the rounded wooden legs, removed the wooden handles. We treated the wood with Jax Oleum which has a bit of a champaign tint to the wood. Black steel legs and black handles have been added to the cabinet.

Note/Disclaimer:
Our images form part of the item/s description. Although all effort is made to refurbish our furniture to best represent its original state, it must be noted that most of the items we source date between the 1950s to the late 1970s. For this reason and although restored, signs of their vintage condition & age might still be visible. We will normally point out any visible/notable concerns. Take note of all photos or view the item in-store prior to purchasing.
As with most Mid-Century pieces, it is a good combination of solid wood and a high-quality wood veneer. The history of veneer on furniture is a long and honorable tradition, and it depends on the veneer's artistry, condition, and thickness the quality of the old veneer was long-lasting; for this reason, it can be retouched or sanded and refinished.
