Victorian Antique Walnut Ship Captain Davenport Secretary Desk, Leather #35939

A Victorian 1880 era "ship captain's" desk was also called a "Davenport" after its English inventor, Col. Davenport. The compact size and efficient use of space made this antique furniture functional on shipboard.

On the back is a gallery to hold books. On the right is a tiny drawer fitted to hold an inkwell and pens plus larger drawers with hand cut dovetail joints.

Dimensions are 22" wide, 23" deep, 37 1/2" tall, and the desk top slopes from 31" to 33" high.
