About the collection

Vintage & Antique Asian Desks and Writing Tables

FEA Home’s collection of vintage and antique Asian desks and writing tables highlights elegant craftsmanship from China, India, and Southeast Asia. These handcrafted pieces are ideal for home offices, libraries, or entryways, offering both functional workspace and artistic detail.

Chinese desks often feature straight frames, round legs, floating panels, and carved spandrels, reflecting Ming and Qing dynasty aesthetics. Indian and Anglo-Indian writing tables bring ornate carvings, turned legs, and colonial-era influence, while Southeast Asian desks incorporate local joinery and weathered patinas.

Many of these pieces are crafted from solid teak, elm, or sheesham wood — selected for its strength, grain, and timeless appeal. Some include small drawers, pigeonhole compartments, or decorative stretchers that blend utility with design.

Pair your desk with an accent chair, side table, or storage cabinet to complete your workspace with global character. Whether you're looking for a minimal table or a richly carved statement piece, this collection offers pieces that elevate both style and purpose.

Explore the full collection of vintage and antique desks and writing tables to find a piece that inspires creativity and reflects heritage craftsmanship.
