Antique early 20th century school desk with attached seat, a charming and sturdy piece of good quality, with solid timber on a pair of decorative cast iron frames.
The sloping writing top has a ceramic inkwell and a pen groove to the back edge, with an open book compartment beneath, and the bench seat with its two-plank back faces the desk.
The cast iron ends are pierced and cast with an entwined monogram, and the desk and seat are joined by two long timber floor runners, making it a single stable piece.
The timber shows a bold open grain and a warm, worn colour, and the top still carries the carved initials and marks of its schoolroom life.
Presented in good condition commensurate with age and use. A very desirable piece of nostalgia, a perfect addition to a child's room, study, hallway or as a display piece.
