Antique Solid Oak Pedestal Desk In Blend #11

As part of the restoration, the plinth bases were rebuilt using period-matching oak, and all drawer fronts were replaced with new English oak for strength and consistency. The original leather top was removed and replaced with a solid oak surface, providing a more durable and practical workspace. Each element was sanded, repaired, and carefully refined to achieve a cleaner silhouette while respecting the desk’s original proportions.

The result is a robust and functional writing desk with generous drawer storage and strong visual presence. While its construction and detailing reflect its early 20th-century origins, the updated materials and fresh finish make it equally suited to contemporary interiors, combining historic charm with everyday usability.

UK deliveries:

We offer White Glove delivery as standard for larger pieces within England, Wales, and Scotland (excluding Northern Ireland), carried out by Empire Delivery. Once your order is placed, please allow 5 to 7 days for us to prepare and arrange collection from our workshop. After collection, delivery is typically arranged within a further 5 to 7 days.

Smaller items, such as mirrors and trays, are sent by courier and are usually delivered the next working day after collection. Free warehouse collection is also available by appointment.

International deliveries:

Smaller pieces are shipped with DHL under Delivered Duty Paid (DDP) terms, meaning all import taxes are prepaid and nothing is due on arrival. Larger items are securely crated using high-density foam, bubble wrap, and OSB crates to ensure safe transit. International shipments typically take 5 to 15 days from dispatch to arrive.

Shipping costs are calculated and displayed at checkout based on the size, weight, and delivery address.

For US customers:

All US orders are shipped under Delivered Duty Paid (DDP) terms, which means import taxes and duties including the latest tariffs are included in the total at checkout. However, due to ongoing uncertainty around tariff rates, if there is a significant increase between the time your order is placed and the time it is dispatched, we may need to settle the difference before shipment. In such cases, we will either issue a corrective invoice or revert to Delivered at Place (DAP) and refund any duties already paid. If you have any questions about customs charges or how DDP works, please feel free to contact us and we will be happy to assist.

We take great pride in the craftsmanship of every piece we create and offer a lifetime warranty on the structural integrity and functionality of all our work, covering frame stability, joinery, and overall construction. This warranty does not cover wear and tear, accidental damage, or issues caused by improper care or use.

We also offer a lifetime buyback guarantee. If you ever wish to part with your piece, we would be pleased to buy it back, restore it, and return it to circulation, ensuring it continues its life as part of a thoughtful and sustainable cycle.

Returns:

If you would like to return an item, please contact us within 30 days of delivery. Returned items must be unused, in their original condition, and in their original packaging. Pieces made to custom dimensions are non-returnable, unless faulty. Standard pieces remain eligible for return under our 30-day policy.

If something is not quite right, we will always offer to repair or resolve the issue first, as we want every piece to be loved and enjoyed for many years. If a repair is not possible, we will arrange collection at no cost to you. For standard returns, return shipping is the customer’s responsibility; however, if you would like us to assist with collection, we are happy to help by arranging this for you where possible and deducting the cost from your refund. We recommend using a tracked and insured service if you are returning a piece independently, to ensure it arrives back with us safely. Refunds are calculated and processed within 5–7 days of inspection.
