Reputable British furniture maker, Herbert E Gibbs, made reliable, unfussy home furniture with the emphasis on practicality and function first and foremost. We’re more used to stocking his slimline bureaus and bookcases of the fifties so we were a little surprised to see his name on the back of this substantial later teak piece. It has a very generous desk area with plenty of depth and width so a super piece for the frequent homeworker. Lots of storage both up top and in the cupboard below to get organised and at the end of the day, the desk and work can be closed for home life to takeover.
