As a little girl, I used to daydream that I could time travel back into the Middle Ages and play princess among peasants (a.k.a. my brother). Now as a woman I can only hope to furnish my home with Middle Ages-inspired pieces like this Restoration Hardware desk. Although the desk might seem like a bit much, the appeal is in its romantic design.
Made of reclaimed teak, the Restoration Hardware desk was inspired by the architecture found in the Classical period. Hard-carved and antiquated for an authentic look, the desk is a stunning creation.
