But can't afford this desk

Where could I look for cheaper alternatives that are not completely rubbish quality?

I know I'm not being helpful but that is my desk and I love it. It looks great in my office and the little cupboard is so useful.

Looks very mid century which is really in right now. Do you have a local antiques mill? Ours has loads in, all sub £200

I'm looking for a new desk. I like that one.

We bought that desk and returned it - the drawers stuck really badly, it didn’t look such great quality close up, and the metal legs were really clunky.

For a similar style you could try made.com or look on gumtree and eBay for mid century styles.

I bought that exact desk brand new off eBay, just search the name Calia. I love it! Just be aware the top is not smooth but no big deal.

Oh and Shiply can do the pick up and delivery for you.

Made or Swoon both have a nice selection of solid wood desks in mid century style.

Antique markets have lots similar from 60s/70s where are you based near ?
