R J Horner quarter cut Oak Victorian standing winged Griffin carved partners desk. The exceptional desk is in beautiful refinished condition with no repairs necessary. The top has rich quarter cut grain and finished with an inset border of carved C scrolls acanthus foliage with Horner’s characteristic Egg set into shield on the corners. As you see in one image there are 2 deep drawers one on each the front & back of this desk which are part of the deep rounded and carved apron and have dovetail construction front and back. These 2 drawers never had handles or pulls instead they were built with an Oak ball in the center under the drawer which you push up on and pull the drawer out from under. The apron is entirely carved in the same manner as the top and also finished along the bottom edge with a bead carved border. The large top is supported by four magnificent standing bearded & winged Griffins measuring 18” from top to bottom. The Griffins have the signature Horner carved egg on their breast and free standing carved wings extending out behind with tail rolled up under coming out from between the carved paw feet. The Griffins are set on a large heavy quatrefoil raised platform with eased edge and squash bun foot under
