Many people like the appearance and the convenience of antique writing desks. A writing desk is usually much smaller than a regular desk, thus it is able to easily fit into small rooms, or fill up small empty spaces around the house. Antiques have a classic style of their own which really do add a lot of charm to a home.
If you are seriously interested in buying a genuine antique you will probably need to research the different types available. There is quite a lot of information online. You could also visit an antique dealer to learn more, or research the topic at your local library.
Lamp Tables With Drawers
While there are many different styles of antique writing desks, there are three main styles that most people are probably somewhat familiar with. You can also find replicas of these styles of desks which are usually quite a bit cheaper than the original antique style desks. A good thing to consider before rushing out and purchasing an antique desk, or any antique furniture for that matter, is whether you really need it. Would a replica do as well? If you are just aiming for a specific "look" or décor style you may well find that buying a cheaper replica serves the purpose just as well. Everyone is probably familiar with the small, rectangular shaped writing desk. This desk usually has several drawers in the front section where you can store pens and paper.
A cylinder desk is another antique style desk. With this type of desk the lid is lowered down over the desk and writing area, and it is usually cylindrical in shape. When you use the desk you simply roll the cylinder up and back into the desk. This style desk may have drawers in the front but it frequently has either drawers or pigeonholes at the back of the desk also. The great thing about this style of desk is that you do not have to pack everything away, you can simply leave your writing on the desk and pull the cylinder cover down over it.
The bureau desk has the writing surface attached to the back section of the desk. In order to write, you pull the lid down where it becomes your desk top. The plus with this type of desk is that it is extremely space saving and can be used in very small rooms. Hopefully this has given you some idea of the types of antique writing desks and replicas that are available.
