House Note · About this piece

Sir Walter Scott wrote many of his later novels in the study at Abbotsford, the house he built beside the River Tweed, surrounded by his books. This desk is made for that kind of daily, focused work. Its leather top is a warm, quiet surface to write on, and its drawers keep pens, notebooks and letters close at hand, so the work stays on the desk and the clutter stays out of sight.

The top is leather with an aged look, set on a base of iron bars with a hammered, worn finish. The drawers have cast brass pulls in the campaign style, the squared handles first used on travelling chests, and inside they are lined with embossed handmade paper. At 49 inches wide it suits a study or the corner of a bedroom. It arrives fully assembled.

Set it under a window in a study or library with a desk lamp, a stack of notebooks and a cup of coffee, and a good chair pulled up. This listing is for one desk.
