Styles and trends: Desks take on flaxen focus
Style setters: Desks
Lindsey Hughes -- Home Accents Today, 6/1/2009 12:00:00 AM
Writing desks fare on the lighter side looking ultra fresh and revamped for the season. White to light golden oak is all the rage, and accents such as cut colored glass, vellum and antique mirror pump up the glam factor. Write off the dark, heavy finishes of the past and embrace these blonde bombshells.

Antique gold ring pulls and a gold leaf stretcher add a touch of glimmer to the cerused oak Michel desk from Bungalow 5 ($1,945). |
| Julian Chichester's Cocteau desk boasts a swanky curved frame in a light oak limed finish and a paneled vellum top ($4,275). |

Hand-finished and heavily distressed, the Small French desk from Aidan Gray is designed to replicate natural whitewashed wood with watermarked antique mirror ($1,350). |
| Cut colored glass embellishes the handmade American oak desk from Ercole ($4,450). |

Natural limed oak and an X-shaped base partner to form the Cain desk from Arteriors Home ($2,499). |
| A geometrically-correct base boosts the style quotient on Shine Home's Essex desk made of cerused white oak ($3,990). |
