What customers say

Know before you buy
The finish is tailored to the specific wood species to best highlight its grain. Cherry and Walnut pieces are finished with a blend of linseed oil and wax, while Maple is treated with a tung oil and wax finish.
The desk arrives fully assembled. As part of the included white glove delivery service, the crew will place the desk in your room of choice and handle the setup.
The drawers are built to last using traditional dovetail joinery, which provides superior strength compared to standard butt joints. They also feature high-end metal slides for smooth, reliable operation over time.
The lifetime guarantee covers the structural integrity and craftsmanship of the desk. It reflects the manufacturer's commitment to the quality of their solid wood construction and joinery.
Because the finish is a natural oil and wax blend, it is easy to maintain. You can periodically apply a high-quality furniture wax to keep the wood nourished and protected from minor surface wear.
