ANTIQUE Late 1800's WOOD WRITING LAP DESK for TRAVEL w/ KEY Made in Spain
ANTIQUE WRITING LAP DESK This is a great antique writing lap desk. I think it dates back to the late 1800's. It was a family heirloom. From the lithograph and paper label on the inside. I believe this lap desk original came from SPAIN. This travel lap desk has been used through the years so there are expected signs of wear from normal use. The wood on the bottom has a split. I am sure not too difficult of a repair. The red cloth writing surface is worn and a bit soiled. The wood is overall nice but there are some minor scratches and scuffs from age and use. The paper labels on the inside have some additional writing not original to the labels. This desk measures 16" x 11 1/4" when opened and 8" x 11 1/4" when closed. Selling in"vintage/as found" condition. Please take a look at the pictures for details. Buyer ... moreto prepay including shipping costs within 3 days of auction end.

It has decorative brass bound corners and edges, side handles, lock front and inscribed monogrammed plaque on top with the initials"JL" Inside there is a top surface piece that fits into the top with a small latch(the second latch is missing) Both the top and bottom inside pieces have crisscrossed ribbons on one side to hold paperwork. In the front is a rows of compartments- two small ones have lids and the center longer section has a curved wood lid with a handle. On the reverse side of this longer lid there is writing that says"James London August 1814" There is another name in the middle but I can't make it out. There is a Brass ... morepiece on the side that lifts up to hold the top of the desk up. The one on the other side is missing. Under that piece is a small brass dowel that when lifted out allows for a bottom drawer to be opened and pulled out- the drawer runs the length of the inside of the desk. Beautiful Mahogany Wood finish on the outside. In very good condition for the age. There are some small missing parts inside, but the piece can still function as a travel desk. Makes a beautiful display piece and collectible. Inside the desk was an early newspaper article about a Captain John Julius Guthrie who was the executive officer of the sloop of war Saratoga who captured a slave ship at the mouth of the Congo River in 1861. It says this was the last slaver captured by an American warship and the captain then resigned and entered the confederate service. The article is a letter to the newspaper written by the son of the captain and he points out that the slave ship was owned, manned and equipped in the city of Boston, Mass. It is possible that the desk was later used by this man, but I am not sure- it was left in the desk, and I can include it if the buyer is interested. Desk measures 20" long. 11&

Civil War Era officers travel writing desk English Style with Secret Drawers

Writing desk closed is 19.25 x 10 x 6.5" Comes with one antique glass ink bottle, without the cap. There are carry handles made of brass that fold flush against the desk when not in use. There are two special features, TWO secret compartments. Open the writing area. Remove a corner peg and out pops the specret compartment with two drawers. I was told the three knobs are ivory and appear to be original. Remove the large brass pin inside. And open the brass handle on the outside and another secret comparment. A drawer that is the full length of the desk. The writing board will need to be reattached in the center where the fold is, but the piece of ribbon to lift the writing board is still intact. ... moreThe hinge needs attention. and the other hinge is missing. The brass plate for the key on the front of the desk is not there. There is no key. The fabric on the writing surface appears to be original. The brass corners and the brass handles also appear to be original. There is a brass plate inlaid on the top, no inscription, and this is orignial I am sure. The wood has some cracks, but I really think this adds to the character and given the age, not a detraction. This would make a wonderful gift for that special writer or poet in your life. There is something about using a piece of history that gives you a special approach to writing. Now I am not a writer, but love antiques and was graced with two beautiuful writing desks, and only have room for one. This graceful desk will be packed and shipped with great care. Comes from a non-smoking home. There is time to have this for Valentine's Day. What a gift.
Antique Travel Walnut ? Wooden Writing Lap Field Stationary Portable Desk Box
Antique Portable Travel Writing Lap Desk with bun feet. This piece was purchased at an estate sale in the Washington DC area. Desk measures approx. 17" long x 9 deep x 14" tall. There are several compartments and drawers. The drawers are all hand dovetailed. Front and back sides. There are the 2 hidden compartments that come out, but look as though they are stationery columns. My guess is that the brass hardware is original. The finish may not be original. The wood may be walnut, not sure though. There are some nicks, surface scratches and signs of aging, all of which I consider age appropriate wear. A little bit of veneer damage, some stress cracks(some are natural in the wood) and inside has some slight warping. There is no key. I love this piece but have nowhere to display it in my home. Please ask questions as I do not accept ... morereturns. Thank you Bidder to pay $75.00 fed ex ground shipping.
