If you are looking for practical and versatile desks that can be used by more than one person, then partners desks could be just right for you.<\/span><\/p>\n

Finished on both sides, <\/span>partners desks<\/span> enable two people to sit and work at them on either side facing each other. Another advantage is that they can be placed anywhere in a room and not necessarily against a wall, since they usually have drawers or cupboards on both sides.<\/span><\/p>\n

This piece of furniture was first conceived in UK banking institutions where there was a need for people to work in close proximity whilst still having a fully functional desk of their own, with cupboards and drawers close to hand.<\/span><\/p>\n

Here at Regent Antiques, we have assembled a lovely collection of fabulous antique partners desks<\/a> for you to choose from. Today we would like to take you through some of the most exceptional models.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

An interesting fact is that this large Victorian partners desk was gifted by the Coombe Bank estate of the late Sir Robert Ludwig Mond (1867-1938). The \u2018Company\u2019 is Brunner-Mond, the company founded by his father, the German-born industrialist Ludwig Mond (1839-1909), of which Sir Robert became a Director. It was later merged with Imperial Chemicals Industries (ICI). Sir Robert, a chemist and archaeologist, had a passionate interest in Egyptian archaeology, organising and personally financing various expeditions. He bequeathed his extensive collection of Egyptian and Classical antiquities to a large number of museums across Britain including the British Museum and numerous other museums including the Ashmolean, Liverpool, Sheffield, Royal Museum of Ontario and Institute of Jamaica.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n
