Description
This is a Victorian pedestal kneehole desk.
It is mainly made of mahogany although the sides appear to be made from pine with a mahogany veneer.
It is a beautiful piece of furniture and benefits from splitting into three pieces just below the three drawer top.
On the whole the condition is very good so without any further ado I will draw your attention the flaws.
There is historical wear to the leather top, although whether or not you consider this a flaw or an attribute is down to personal taste. There is general wear to the finish of the wood around the leather at the top, but I would suggest the condition of this for the age is very good.
Two pieces of wood are missing from the inside of two of the drawers to the corner. These are very small pieces, and frankly, the only thing that would fall through them would be a drawing pin.
No excuses for the next problem, one of the handle drops to the beautiful brass handles is missing. You can of course change your handles around so that the one with the missing handle is to the bottom of the desk.
Apart from that, it is in good condition. The finish is well preserved, and the drawers run well. Some historical marks from ink etc, but nothing terrible.
As shown in the images, this desk is in very good condition, especially considering its age of nearly 150 years. While it has some minor imperfections, these are typical of a piece of this era and only enhance its vintage appeal. It is highly unlikely to find a desk of this age in mint condition, but this one offers a beautiful balance of history, functionality, and style.
This Victorian desk is perfect for those who appreciate antique furniture with character. Don’t miss the opportunity to own this elegant and practical piece of history!
Height 73 cm, leg space 58 cm
Width 106 cm
Depth 60 cm

We want everybody’s Vinterior experience to be seamless, so both buyers and sellers can fall in love with pre-loved. We designed our Terms of sale to treat everybody fairly.
However, sometimes things don’t go exactly to plan, and you may need to cancel or return an order.
To prevent this, we encourage you to check listings, photos and descriptions carefully before you buy. If you aren’t sure about a piece’s condition, size, provenance or shipping, just ask; click Contact seller to get in touch. Always contact your seller first if you have any queries, at any point in your purchase.
Our buyers receive the same protection when buying from all our sellers, both professional and verified.
Can I cancel an order?
There are many reasons why you might need to cancel an order, and you'll often be entitled to a refund. To cancel an order, click Create cancellation on the order page.
If you cancel your order before it has been dispatched, you will receive a full refund - including delivery costs. However, if your item has been shipped, delivery costs will not be included in your refund.
Please note: orders of bespoke, personalised or made-to-order pieces cannot be cancelled.
Can I return an order?
We understand that sometimes a piece isn’t the perfect fit. So if you no longer want your order, our returns process will ensure it finds a new home fast.
The Vinterior Guarantee included with your purchase entitles you to 14-day returns - allowing you to return any item within 14 days of the delivery date (except in specific circumstances, detailed below).
You can return your order if...
It isn't what you expected
If what arrives isn’t what you ordered, you can open a return. Just send us some photo evidence that the listing was inaccurate, misleading or misrepresented your purchased piece, and you’ll receive a refund.
You change your mind
If you don’t feel a piece is right for your space, you can return it. Once you request a change of mind return, you’ll be responsible for shipping the piece back to your seller as soon as possible. Delivery costs are non-refundable.
It's damaged in transit
In the rare event that an item arrives damaged or defective, you have a full 30 days from the date of delivery to return it for a full refund.
If your purchase arrives broken, always let us know. If Proovia delivered the piece, we can raise an insurance claim on the seller’s behalf. Or, the seller can raise a claim with their chosen courier.
What can't I return?
Just as there are some orders you can’t cancel, there are some you cant return, too. Personalised, bespoke or made-to-order pieces are non-returnable, and non-refundable. Sellers may also reject your return if the item has been altered in any way.
Please note: pieces on our site are pre-loved, not new. They may show some wear and tear; this is not sufficient grounds for a refund, unless the seller has misrepresented the item’s condition.
Lastly, neither Vinterior nor our sellers are liable for any damages or loss sustained in transit via third parties.
I'm eligible for a return. Now what?
To initiate a return, log into your Vinterior account, then go to the relevant order page and click Create a return. In the return request, be sure to include all the details: the reason for your return, an in-depth description, and photos of any issues or damage.
How will I receive my refund?
Once the seller confirms they’ve received the item (in the same condition it was sent), we will send your refund to your original payment method.
All items are inspected on return. If the seller receives the return with damage they don’t recognise, we will not be able to process your refund and the seller may need to send the piece back to you. You will be required to cover these delivery costs.
