Mid-20th Century Hand-Painted Venetian Style Desk or Vanity by Hampton Shops

A charming Mid-20th Century hand-painted desk or vanity crafted by Hampton Shops of New York. This elegant piece reflects a Venetian Revival style, showcasing chinoiserie-inspired scenes framed by scrolling foliate motifs, all rendered in soft green and cream tones with a delicate antiqued crackle finish.

The desk features a single center drawer and two side cabinets, each opening to reveal three inner drawers, offering both function and beauty. It rests on fluted Louis XVI-style legs with gilt accents, adding to its refined character. The top is fitted with its original mirrored glass, showing natural age-related spotting consistent with the piece’s vintage charm.

Stamped “Hampton Shops” and “Dorset” on the underside, this piece reflects the fine craftsmanship and attention to detail that Hampton Shops was known for during its production era.

Wear, scuffs, and paint loss are present and typical for its age, contributing to its authentic patina. Overall, the piece remains structurally sound and visually striking, perfect for use as a desk, vanity, or statement console.
