House Note · About this piece

The bureau plat, the flat-topped writing table of eighteenth-century Paris, was an open piece with a leather top, made for letters, accounts and the quiet work of running a house. This desk keeps that idea, with a leather surface made for working on. It gives you a broad, smooth surface for a laptop, a notebook and a cup of coffee, and it is just as happy pulled away from the wall and laid for a small dinner.

The case is wood, covered in leather embossed with the pebbled grain of shagreen, so the surface stays warm and soft under the wrists through a long morning of work. At 48 inches wide and 24 deep it holds a computer and a spread of papers side by side without taking over the room, and its 30-inch height suits a standard desk chair or a dining chair. It arrives fully assembled.

Put it beneath a window in a study or a spare bedroom with a lamp, a tray for pens and a few letters waiting for replies, or use it in a small dining nook as a table for two, set with candles and a bottle of wine. This listing is for one desk.
