This stunning, exquisitely carved piece of Edwardian Art Nouveau furniture is definitely One of a Kind – you will hardly find anything like this one neither in New Zealand nor in England. We actually did some research before listing this item – nothing similar found.

This unique piece can be used as a Writing Desk / Ladies Desk, or a Dressing Table / Dresser. The wood is Kauri, the country of origin is most likely New Zealand. Comes with a protective glass top. The single drawer lined with a very nice decorative fabric, the lining is new. The desk is in excellent condition for its age, and was not in use since we restored it and lined the drawer.

Art Nouveau was a famous decorative Style that became popular in Europe and the US between 1890 and 1910. It impacted, among many other things, furniture design. The term 'Art Nouveau' is French, meaning 'New Art’. Its goal was a new art for a new age. The other name of that bygone period is the “Era of Arts and Crafts”.

This exclusive piece of furniture would look great at any home office, lounge, or in a bedroom - if used as a Dressing Table. This Desk / Dressing Table is elegant, in a class of its own, and would grace anyone's home regardless of décor – this piece of bygone era Art is more than just a furniture - surely it is a collectable item, so could be considered as an investment.

Dimensions: W 100cm, D 76cm, H 165cm.

Due to both the quality of the craftsmanship and the nature of the item we firmly believe that this piece is of genuine Edwardian origins.
