Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

A slant-front desk has a sloping front that drops down to create a writing surface, similar to a chest of drawers with a drop-down front. Slant-top desks also have a sloping writing surface, but their construction is different, as the top lifts up to access storage compartments underneath. Writing desks may have drawers, but their primary function is for writing rather than storage. The postmaster's desk is a type of mail-sorting desk and has a different design than a slant-front or slant-top desk.
