The Classic Industrial Desk is reminiscent of 1930's-40's utilitarian furniture found in household and factory offices. It is deliberately functional while maintaining subtle design details that are classic in nature.
A single drawer offers a simple solution for loose stationery.
Round-over edge profiles on the desk top and legs are as much for user comfort as they are for aesthetics.
Tapered feet are a refined elegance in the otherwise solid proportions.
A tobacco stain helps to accentuate the Oak grain, although this would also be appealing in a naturally finished version.
Materials:
- U.S. Oak
Finish:
- Stain
- Satin hardwax oil
Dimensions:
- L2400 x W650 x H730 mm (as pictured)
Custom dimensions, materials & finishes are available on consultation.

Julian's love for the material and eye for design make our new shelves uniquely beautiful. It was a pleasure working with Julian from the beginning. He took the time to have detailed conversations about what we were looking for, what kind of look and function we were going for, so that he could build something that suited our space and our aesthetic. Those discussions about process, combined with the communication along the way of how the pieces were evolving, and the warmth and care he infuses into the wood he is working with, really make these pieces more than just functional. They resonate. The wood is still very much alive and it brings a vibrancy to the room. I would love to have more of his work in our home.
Bookshelf ~ March 2023
Julian was fantastic - engaging on the different options available to us and bringing his deep knowledge of not only furniture making but also usage. We ended up with a spectacular piece that we are looking forward to enjoying for decades. Highly highly recommend.
Dining Table ~ January 2023
The 'Dorset bed' Julian made for me combines a headboard made in the village I grew up in the UK with a beautiful bed made of Victorian messmate so it represents my personal journey. Julian's design is stunning combining traditional joinery with modern, timeless lines that are a calling card of Julian's work. I'm super happy with the end product and would highly recommend Glencross.
Queen Bed Frame ~ September 2022
Julian was easy to work with, his design accurately interpreted my wishes, and his workmanship is of high quality.
Side Tables ~ August 2022
Julian took a treasured heirloom and made it better than the original table. He took the time to work through what we thought we wanted, making suggestions that resulted in the finished result being more than we had hoped to achieve.

Console ~ November 2021
Julian was fantastic to work with, he was very responsive to queries and really took the time to understand what it was we needed. He was able to help take our original brief and make it into something exceptional by bringing ideas and examples that really enhanced the finished item. His workmanship is top-notch and we are extremely happy with the finished item, it looks great!
Console Table ~ January 2021
Julian @ Glencross was an absolute pleasure to work with, bringing my wife and I into the creative process to ensure we loved the end result (which we do!) and investing a lot of care and attention along the way.
I highly recommend for any custom project and will reach out to Glencross again when we have the opportunity to place a custom piece of furniture into our home. Thanks again!
