Smart Vintage 1960s Jentique Oak Bureau with Drawers & Writing Desk
Neat, efficient vintage bureaus come with considerable charm and these days they’re having something of a renaissance with increased demands for working from home. Less space-consuming than a conventional desk, they can be closed when the working day is done. Bureaus are also great options for kids’ / teenagers’ rooms to help them get organised with a dedicated, unintrusive work station. This 1960’s light oak bureau from renowned British furniture maker, Jentique, is a beauty and ticks all the boxes for sharp good looks and original design details along with practicality. Four generous drawers provide masses of storage and pull down the double-lock (super security!), hinged door to create a desk platform. Pull up a chair and you’re set to focus and work.
