Large Lap Desk on Stand
7341FP. Circa 1810. England. The box is mahogany and tiger maple with original brass hardware. The stand was handmade by us in cherry. Leather writing surface is replacement and put on by us. This oversized traveling desk is typical of the type used by military attaches, circuit court clerks, and other traveling men in the early 19th century. We have a stand for it which makes it the perfect height for a small coffee table -- we would recommend a piece of glass on top to protect the surface if that is your intended use (not included in price). Very good condition -- some old repairs and some new restoration by us. Height: 19.5"(on stand) or 8"(box only), Width: 35", Depth: 18.5". $2,400.00.
