Antique roll top desk?Hmm, nice buy!

A few days ago I have been faced with the situation where one of my customers asked to buy a desk for his daughter. He wanted one that be solid and face the time so I have recommended him a solid roll top desk. He was very happy with this proposal so we went through the stores I know to find one that fit his home design.

How about an antique? How would you like an old roll top desk?

At one moment we reached an antique shop where there was this beautiful antique roll top desk, solid wood, old oak, in a perfect condition. We started a discussion with the seller who was more than happy to give us all the informations we needed. Seems that, because it used to belong to a wealthy plant owner of the local city, was in very good shape, but, because the man was not that famous, the price of this antique and beautiful roll top desk was not high. It is not like the desk belonged to a personality, right? But the value of the piece of furniture was great so I advised my client to buy it immediately.

My client followed my advice and bought it and I can tell you that at this very moment, the antique rolltop desk sits proudly in his daughter office serving it's meaning.

I was also happy to find out that the daughter of my client asked for the story of the desk when she found out it is old and has a history and after hearing how old the desk is, she started to pay very much attention when using it, to preserve what others saved before her, what I find to be a very beautiful thing to do.

Custom desks, painted and refurbished, for children

Di you ever see painted rolltop desks? It is very interesting to see them. They don't have the color of wood but they are colored to whatever color the manufacturer wanted.

I have seen a few a couple of weeks ago in a small store, made by a local manufacturer taht wanted to make a few fun to watch desks for children. I can tell you that the one that I was immediately in love with was a blueish one with a lovely tint.

That piece of furniture was the most beautiful I have ever seen and nothing compared to it. There was also a green one there that was very appreciated by the audience and at the same time by the manufacturer himself who was very connected to it, said it was an old refurbished roll top desk of his grandparents that he managed to bring back to life after a long and hard work.

Most of all, I was amazed to see how many children were in love with these products and with their colors. The green one and the blueish one were the two main items children looked to. I wish I could take one home, but being custom made, the price was not quite cheap.

The old roll top desk my grandfather had...

A few days ago I have payed some thinking to the furniture my grandparents had at home and you know what really came to my mind? The old roll top desk that my grandfather had on his office. My grandfather was a teacher, an old school teacher and this old roll top desk was the piece of furniture he loved the most.

At one moment, after my grandparents passed away, the furniture was moved to an old warehouse and I think that the old rolltop desk was moved there too. I think that the best thing I could do is to go and see if I could find it among all those old stuff. I loved that piece of furniture, it smells old time from all the joints. I love the wood and the tint and everything that comes with it.

If I well remember, I had an old photograph of my grandparents with my father beside that desk, and this photo was on top of it, in my grandfather office. I asked him once about that picture and he told me about it, about when it was made and about the roll top desk too. Seems that it was purchased in the same day my father was born, so it has a particular value!

I am going to look for it in the next days! For sure!

Time gives value to a roll top desk!

One of the questions people ask is should I buy a roll top desk that is brand new or an old one since 20 years ago that stood the test of time?

Well, here everything depends on how you look at ti, from what point of view you look at it, because a brand new roll top desk brings the value of a new thing, durability, smell of "new", new design, most of the time improved, well treated wood, guaranty from the manufacturer, etc.

An old, used roll top desk brings other values to the table, like authenticity, extra value as antique object, most of the time a sentimental value because it was part of somebody's life, etc. All these come as extra features to the object itself and sometimes they raise the price.

The value of an antique rolltop desk

You may say that there is no reason to pay more for an old furniture and probably you are right, but in this case, you should ask people collecting various antique items why they do it. For some there is a great value in an old item and sometimes, rolltop desks fall into this category.

Especially if we speak not about a 20 years old roll top desk but about an older one, let's say, from the beginning of their fabrication, somewhere around 1840. Ask yourself how much would you pay for one from 1840? More than for one built 3 days ago? I think the answer will be yes and you will understand easily why the person selling it asks for a bigger amount of money.
Time gives value!

Child size roll top desk?

rolltop desk for children
Well, I know that you have your own memories about roll top desks and parents home, but how about your baby? Don't you think your baby would also love such a piece of furniture?
Did you know that actually there are quite a few child size roll top desks around that will make a lovely gift for your child room?

Roll top desk made for your child

Think about it, you won't need to give your child a full size desk, you can buy one that fits size with your child size, it is that easy: look for one of those child size desks, with roll top and you will see that your child will love it the moment he sees it.

I know a few of my friends who actually bought such items for their children and they were amazed by the effect they had on their children. It is normal if you think about it. You actually don't give your child a piece of furniture but a personal space, something that is build for him and that won't be used by you, parents. You give him something to put his stuff in, a personal space that will make his day!

But of course, you need to pick a nice one because your child will want a pretty piece of furniture in his room, right? So pick one that fits your child personality, a small and beautiful one!

Why would you buy a roll top desk?

There are many reasons for which you should buy a roll top desk! First of all, they come from an other time, they are the exponents of good old times, represent the values of what used to be, packed in a present day shape.

A roll top desk is the thing to have when looking for durable furniture pieces. Nowadays, regular furniture breaks quite often and needs fixing and replacement. You should know that furniture does not come cheap and investing your money in a durable piece is what you should do.

Roll top desks are durable, don't break easily.

An other thing that I really appreciate when it comes to rolltop desks is the fact that they work for more categories of age:

  • children - if you want to teach them values of your childhood, buy them one of these pieces of furniture and give them something right there in front of their eyes. This way they will know what is the value of old time items.
  • adults - a roll top desk brings back long gone times when you spent most of your happy moments, right? In your parents or grandparents home. This can only be refreshed in your memory with one of those lovely furniture.

Roll top desk, the thing to have

Very interesting, these last days I have become more and more interested in this wonderful piece of furniture, the roll top desk. There are many models out there and every builder has his own ways of doing the job, but a roll top desk is something that will always follow particular lines that are common to all of them.

Also known as rolltop desk, in two words, not 3, this wonderful piece of life belongs to the 19th century and lived on until our time. Featuring stacked compartments, shelves, drawers and nooks , it comes very handy when actually needing places to store things or to deposit them.
