Know before you buy
The drawers include a removable writing insert, a pencil tray, and three dividers. These components are designed to help you customize your storage space for stationery, pens, and small office supplies.
The desk features a dedicated center open area specifically designed to house a keyboard. While the surface is suitable for a laptop or desktop setup, you should measure your specific monitor and peripherals to ensure they fit comfortably within the workspace.
The black finish on the acacia wood features intentional tiger scratches. This is a deliberate design choice meant to give the desk a casual, lived-in aesthetic rather than a pristine, uniform look.
Assembly is required for this desk, but it is designed for standard home setup. You will need to attach the metal frame to the wood components, so having a second person to help with the 134-pound weight is recommended.
The St. Armand Writing Desk has a total weight capacity of 200 pounds. This is sufficient for a standard computer setup, books, and typical office accessories.
