vintage iroko hardwood worktop/desk/table and black trestles


Recommended Posts

Having served us well as a desk for many years, we've re-arranged the house and no longer have room for this.


The top is from retrouvius and is originally from a school laboratory. It's solid iroko wood and is full of original scuffs and marks which you could sand off but we never did because they give it lots of character. There's a hole and some screws still left in from the laboratory fittings - again, you could probably do something about this but we found it useful to stick a power cable through. It's an unusually long piece at 295 cm long. It's 60mcm wide. There are pictures in the link below but you could also look at the retrouvius website for better images of this kind of thing as they are still sourcing & selling these.

The trestles are black metal trestles from habitat - 60 cm wide and 72cm high. The top is just resting on them - not screwed or glued down in any way.


It works really well as a desk but we also had 14 people round it for Christmas one year, and it's looking like an amazing picnic table in our garden right now!


We'd like ?240 for the top and ?60 for the trestles, but will sell separately. We are based in Camberwell. Please let us know if you want to come and see it.

    • Hello.   Thanks Nigel and Hparker 😀   I've got new slots available for new students looking for a piano teacher or guitar teacher.   You could start in the new term beginning September, or I'm also available adhoc-styles through the summer holidays at times.   I teach all ages, in most styles, in lots of different ways according to how you learn/like to learn.   Give me a call or text on 07730 402336.   I have connections to lots of performance opportunities/networks too.   I run regular events /student concerts, and play in bands/perform.   Natalie. 
    • So do I, but I think they are in trouble as well.  Anyway, that space wouldn't be big enough.
    • I'm not talking about Starmer. I was responding to a post which  said that  Corbyn was unelectable. How people voted in the "more hotly contested election" is irrelevant. Corbyn wasn't leading the Labour Party then. Starmer was. And the turnout for Labour reflects that.
