The very desk where JRR Tolkien meticulously worked on the final stages of his epic fantasy, The Lord of the Rings, is poised to be auctioned in London.
This mid-Victorian roll-top mahogany and satinwood desk, a tangible link to one of literature's most beloved creators, will be offered at Christie’s on 11 December, carrying an estimated price of £50,000 to £80,000.
