An exceptional solid cherry tambour desk by Pennsylvania House, showcasing the fine craftsmanship and enduring quality that made the brand a hallmark of American furniture excellence. This beautifully balanced piece features a compact writing surface and a top hutch with tambour-style doors that open to reveal curved pigeonhole storage shelves and neatly fitted drawers — ideal for organizing stationery, correspondence, or collectibles.
The warm cherry finish glows with depth and refinement, highlighting the natural grain of the solid wood. Elegant Queen Anne–inspired legs add graceful lift to the silhouette, while the brass hardware offers a touch of traditional polish.
Found in a guest bedroom within a private estate, this desk appears virtually unused — a rare opportunity to acquire a Pennsylvania House piece in such remarkably preserved condition.
