Know before you buy
The Stratford Desk provides a chair clearance height of 26 inches. We recommend measuring your current office chair arms to ensure they tuck comfortably underneath the apron.
The Dark Slate finish is a deep, moody charcoal tone with a matte sheen. It offers a sophisticated, modern take on traditional furniture that feels grounded and substantial in a room.
Assembly is required for this piece, but it is designed to be straightforward for a homeowner. We recommend having two people on hand to manage the weight of the solid acacia construction during the setup process.
The two drawers are designed for standard writing desk storage, perfect for organizing pens, notebooks, and small tech accessories. They feature sleek brass pulls that complement the inset panel detailing.
To maintain the matte finish, dust regularly with a soft, dry cloth. Avoid using harsh chemical cleaners or furniture polishes, as these can alter the appearance of the matte surface over time.
