Bring charm, character, and practicality into your home with this beautifully upcycled vintage bureau desk. Hand-painted in a warm olive green with a smooth, durable finish, this piece combines timeless elegance with modern flair.
Inside is painted in a rich, deep navy blue and the drop-down writing surface features a tactile hessian inlay, secured with antique-style bronze/copper studs. The back panel is enhanced with a bold floral decoupage backdrop, adding a delightful pop of colour every time you open it.
The exterior boasts a striking Green Man carving, giving the piece a touch of grandeur. Original handles have been refreshed with bronze/copper gilding wax to complement the overall look, preserving its vintage soul while making it feel fresh and unique.
Two spacious drawers are framed with carved spiral columns and the interiors have been painted to co-ordination navy blue.
Perfect as a home office desk, writing station, or statement hallway piece, this bureau offers plenty of storage with pigeonhole compartments and drawers to keep everything organised in style.

Timeless Furniture LTD UK (Wrexham) - thank you! Highly recommended.

This is the second time we've bought off Upcite and will always return. This time around, we bought a Victorian Mahogany Chest Of Drawers (£429 including P&P) from Timeless Furniture LTD UK. We contacted Timeless Furniture (Wrexham) through the messages section and they (Dave) were super helpful in confirming P&P will be covered their end but also went out of their way to coat the chest of drawers with another round of woodworm treatment, which was much appreciated. The drawers had been treated before but Dave offered to do it again to allay our concerns. So, once they confirmed this we punched it. The drawers then arrived via courier about a week later and packed very well, arriving in one piece and no damage. Highly recommend Upcite and Timeless Furniture LTD UK. Pete

Nest of tables

The nest of tables are very tastefully done, they are the final piece of furniture in our living room and we're very happy with them. Comms with J&M were great and the tables were packaged very well so arrived in perfect condition. We will definitely buy from UpCite and J&M again when we next need a beautiful piece of furniture. Many thanks

Happy with my cabinet

An absolutely stunning, one-of-a-kind vintage cabinet, lovingly restored by Julie and Mark, whose craftsmanship and attention to detail really shine through. The delivery process, unfortunately, didn’t go to plan, with damage caused by the courier, but both Cole at Upcite and Julie and Mark were incredibly supportive throughout. They pushed to have the piece properly repaired and kept me updated the whole way. Thanks to their persistence and care, the cabinet looks just as gorgeous in my home as I’d hoped. A true statement piece

"I don’t like to match furniture and love mish mash, quirky and odd looking things lol. I absolutely love them. My house is 203 years old and is grade II listed. I think it makes an old cottage come alive and puts a modern twist on it. I love furniture that tells a story or gets people talking at a house party".
