Resolute Desk Design

Inspired by History

The Resolute Desk is more than a piece of furniture — it is a symbol of leadership, diplomacy, and craftsmanship. At Glenn Furniture, we honor that legacy while offering clients the ability to adapt the design to modern needs without losing its timeless character.

Customization Options

Every Resolute Desk we produce can be customized to meet your exact requirements.

  • Finish: Choose from polished, satin, stained, or antique finishes to match your office or home décor.
  • Wood Type: Select between Teak or Mahogany, both premium hardwoods known for strength, durability, and rich grain patterns.
  • Size: Scale the desk to your space, from standard proportions to larger executive dimensions.
  • Carvings: Add or adjust decorative carvings to reflect your style, while keeping the classic design language intact.
  • Hidden Compartments: Discreet storage options can be integrated for both practicality and security, without compromising aesthetics.

Heritage Details

Each desk includes a replica of the original solid brass plate, honoring the inscription presented by Queen Victoria with the first Resolute Desk in 1880. This detail connects your desk to the enduring history of the original.


CAD Drawings & Design Support

For clients who wish to adapt the design further, Glenn Furniture can provide:

  • CAD drawings of proposed variations.
  • 3D renderings to visualize custom modifications before production begins.
  • Expert consultation on proportion, carving, and finishing adjustments.

Built to Last

Constructed from premium Teak or Mahogany and finished by skilled artisans, every Resolute Desk is designed to stand the test of time — a centerpiece for your office that will be passed down for generations.
