Fulbeck Desk - SOLD
Fulbeck Desk - SOLD
A departure from the traditional pedestal desks for which LINLEY was once renowned, The Fulbeck Desk is designed for a contemporary office environment and collaborative form of working. It blends traditional and digital luxury, with cleverly incorporated charging points and battery cells so that the desk can be ‘charged’ via a power source and then used free-standing during meetings.
The form of the desk is light and fluid, with the body appearing to hover over the finely-crafted legs. Its smooth underbelly follows the gentle curve of a stock of a shotgun and facilitates space for internal storage and three secret drawers which are lined in claret Connolly Vaumol leather. Subtle checkering detailing on the end of the desk’s body and legs references the finishing touches in gun making and is tactile to the touch.
The Fulbeck Desk was created using English walnut sourced exclusively from the Fulbeck Estate in Lincolnshire. Recorded as the third largest walnut in the country, it was estimated to be between three and four hundred years old before it was blown down in the great storm of 2007. The LINLEY designers carefully hand-selected each piece of veneer to best display the beautiful ripple grain in the wood.
Running down the centre of the desk is a striking brushed brass plate, intricately hand-engraved by Dr Malcolm Appleby, one of the world’s finest shotgun engravers. Malcolm is known for his imaginative use of line and form, and his detailed embellishment mirrors both the ripple in the walnut veneer and the engravings found on the stock of a shotgun.
