Cherry wood is a gorgeous and unique wood stain that will match darker and lighter colors of wood. Whether you’re looking for a classic secretary desk to fit a small room or a desk with a hutch, there are tons to choose from. Our design experts have picked out a handful of their favorite cherry secretary desks below.
Our Picks
Red Cherry Secretary Desk
Featuring a beautiful antique cherry varnish, this desk is crafted from pine. It has six small drawers, a larger drawer below, and a flat top for writing. The legs are long and straight with a slim silhouette.
Designer Advice:
This desk is an ideal option if you plan to use it in a hallway or narrow space. It will offer ample storage space without taking up precious floor room. Plus, as you can fold it down, you’ll be able to save even more space. Pair with a burgundy rug underneath and a cream wooden chair for a true vintage look.
Dark Cherry Wood Secretary Desk
Inspired by French designs, this desk features three storage drawers, two smaller and one larger. The Queen Anne-style legs lend a distinguished touch, whereas the vertical slots give you a place to store letters, documents, and slim books.
Mid Brown Secretary Desk
This desk has a drop-front writing surface and a rich cherry veneer. Finished with antique brass hardware, it features four drawers – three below and one just beneath the surface. There is additional storage hidden away behind the drop front, too.
Slim Antique Cherry Secretary Desk with Hutch
This desk originates from the 1970s and is made from solid cherry wood. As well as a larger drawer, it has several slim drawers above the writing surface and five vertical slots for documents. The legs are thin and curve inwards.
Designer Advice:
This desk would look most at home in a traditionally decorated office space. It has all you need for working from home, meaning you won’t have time to get distracted when searching for things. We think it would look best matched with a dark green rug and dark wood chair for a sophisticated and elegant contrast.
Tall Secretary Desk with Hutch
Including a key for added privacy, this desk is originally from the 1970s. It stands tall at 87 inches due to the hutch, which has two shelves behind glass doors. Moreover, it is accentuated by carved detail at the top and gold hardware.
Designer Advice:
You could use this desk as both a curio cabinet and a writing desk due to its innovative design. The glass doors on the hutch lend it a classic display cabinet feel, though, of course, you could store books in it rather than glass or collectibles. Either way, it would fit right into a dining room.
Embellished Cherry Secretary Hutch Desk
Made from solid cherry wood in a rectangular shape, this desk is large and unusual. Vintage from the 1970s, it is in good antique condition. It features four drawers, hand dovetailing, carved pulls, spindle detail, and a built-in curio-style bookcase above.
