As artistic as it is functional, the Masterpiece Antique Black Rub-Through Vineyard Desk will be the prime accent piece in your home workspace. This writing desk features an antique black rub-through finish with endearing Irish linen floral patterns on parchment panels. Antique green inset borders complement the green shades in the designs. The narrow drawer front folds down for access to the writing surface. Behind the door on the left side, you'll find a handy magazine rack. A file drawer and a utility drawer store documents and envelopes on the right side of the desk. Three cubby drawers under the top shelf are great for keeping writing utensils and small supplies tidy. Constructed of rubberwood and durable wood composite, this desk also features a concave triple-ogee base over a scalloped apron for traditional elegance. Fully assembled.
The beauty and benefits of rubberwood: Hailing from the maple family of trees, the rubber tree is used in the manufacture of high-end furniture. It is valued for its dense grain, minimal shrinkage, attractive color, and acceptance of different finishes. It is also prized as an "environmentally friendly" wood, as it makes use of trees that have been cut down at the end of their latex-producing cycle.
