#CUSHINGCOLLECTABLES : PETER CUSHING'S WRITING BUREAU / DESK


HERE'S A NEW THEME for our Wednesday's here at the website... by your suggestion, CUSHING COLLECTABLES! Every week, I 'll post and share items from the PCAS Collection or from my personal bits and bobs! Most of the items have a story behind them, some are valuable, some not so, they're just lovely things to see and collect ...with a history!


This week we kick off with an item of furniture that Peter and Helen Cushing purchased for their home when they lived in Kensington London. An Edwardian writing desk / bureau, which then was moved to the home in Whitstable... it has three deep drawers and a pull down writing area with lovely little compartments. On top, behind the two glass wooden lattice doors are three, shelves.


On the banner above are two pictures of the bureau, one on the left in Peter's study, and on the right, today . This bureau was purchased at auction, along with several other items... there is a GREAT story connected to this bureau, which I will share with you, with some NEVER seen before photographs of something quite, quite unique...in the next post!
