Project Information
A small traditional writing desk. It is made from West Australian Jarrah.
The main rails and desk top are enhanced with red maple burl inlays surrounded by traditional kingwood bandings. The book matched top has an accessories 'box' at the back with a couple of small drawers, together with a lidded compartment disguised as three drawers. Lifting the desk top gives access to a removable laptop tray, a lift out pen tray, and two lidded compartments. A hidden 'latch' releases the support strip that the laptop tray slides on. Behind it are the three hidden drawers.
The basic stool frame of the desk before the inlays were applied.
The book matched maple burl for the desk top.
The desk was made to match one of my earlier projects, hence the complex legs. See 'Cutlery Box'. http://lumberjocks.com/projects/222074
Thanks for looking.
