Vintage Original Steel Retro Tanker Desk- Double Pedestal - Circa 1950
Our Tanker Desks are timeless, sturdy, and provide a classically reliable work space all the while making a statement: a witness of the past with great aesthetics but also a great conversation piece.
You can individualize the finish combination at will and design your own creation, unique and timeless.
Pictured are EXAMPLES of desks finishes/combinations. Any movable part can be painted a different color/finish, yet typically collectors select our signature all steel hand brushed finish or pick a combination of steel and 1 color (ie: steel body and top + colored drawers or vice versa).

NOTE (2): These pieces are vintage and although we pride ourselves in hand picking the best possible antique pieces, they all will show "character marks", minor dings and dimples acquired over years of service.
