A refined contemporary design, this versatile piece functions beautifully as either a desk or a server. Characterised by its clean lines and elegant brass top inlay, it offers a sophisticated yet understated presence in both residential and office settings.
Available in a range of sizes, the smaller desk configurations feature a single discreet drawer, while the larger executive versions incorporate two drawers. Designed to blend seamlessly into the frame, the drawers maintain the piece's streamlined aesthetic and uncluttered appearance.
The brass top inlay is available in a choice of antiqued, brushed, or bright brass finishes, allowing the piece to be tailored to a variety of interior styles. The timber legs may be specified with either a tapered or turned profile, further enhancing its customisable appeal.
For added practicality, an optional low shelf can be incorporated beneath the top, providing additional storage or display space without compromising the design's light and contemporary character. Thoughtfully crafted and highly versatile, this piece combines functionality with timeless elegance.

Our brass topped tables have been designed to wear - with use scratches and scuff marks will appear. For us this forms part of the charm of the antiquated brass finish, reminiscent of country hotel bar-counters. However, to protect your table and minimize the impact of scratches we recommend that you place rubber or felt pads underneath any medium weight or sharp object placed on top of the table such as lamps, sculptures, computers etc. We also recommend the use of coasters at all times if possible. Water, wine, oils or vinegars should not be allowed to pool on the surface of the brass, nor should the brass be exposed to extreme heat (ie hot coffee, tea) as this could cause marks. Please be aware that unglazed ceramics (such as the underside of plates) are very abrasive - so you may want to use placemats.
After general day-to-day use, wipe down the brass surface with a slightly damp cloth to preserve the wax polish, then dry with a clean soft cloth.
Like all of our indoor furniture, the brass topped tables should not be used outdoors or placed in direct sun everyday. The solid wood will react to the sunlight, temperature changes, and moisture in the air, causing the wood to move and warp. The brass will expand and can warp. Exposure to UV will cause yellowing of the timber and surface cracking.
Air-conditioning dries the air around it, which in turn will dry the timber causing it to crack and warp. Use a humidifier to counteract these effects.
