Partners desk

A partners desk, partner's desk or partners' desk (also known as a double desk) is a mostly historical form of desk, a large pedestal desk designed and constructed for two users working while facing each other. The defining features of a partner's desk are a deep top and two sets of drawers, one at each end of the pedestal.^[1]

The design evolved from 18th-century library writing tables with drawers on two or more sides.^[1]
