What customers say
The Malone Executive Desk is celebrated for its commanding presence and exceptional craftsmanship, truly elevating any home office. Customers consistently praise its solid construction, substantial weight, and meticulous attention to detail, reinforcing Arhaus's reputation for high-end furniture. Many view it as a valuable long-term investment, appreciating the heirloom quality. While the desk's luxurious aesthetic and superior build are highly regarded, some customers note the premium price point prompts scrutiny regarding overall value, especially if minor delivery imperfections arise.

Know before you buy
The Malone Executive Desk is constructed with a solid parawood or oak frame, featuring high-quality walnut or elm wood veneers. The base is crafted from durable steel with a warm brass finish, and the surface includes accents of reconstituted leather embossed with a shagreen pattern.
The drawers are built with traditional English dovetail joinery for added strength and durability. They are equipped with under-mounted, soft-close glides to ensure a smooth, quiet closing experience.
The desk measures 72 inches wide, 30 inches deep, and 30 inches high, providing a spacious rectangular workspace suitable for an executive office.
The wood surfaces are protected by a lacquer coating, which helps maintain the finish. To keep it looking its best, simply dust regularly with a soft, dry cloth and avoid using harsh chemical cleaners that could damage the lacquer.
The reconstituted leather is embossed with a shagreen pattern, which adds texture and visual interest. While it is durable, it is a decorative element, so we recommend using a desk mat if you plan on doing heavy writing directly on the surface.
