The council paid $600 to local resident Rai Webber, who would otherwise have sold it privately.
The 1.7-metre desk has two sloping sides and a narrow flat section for ink wells.
It's believed it was used to fill out banking forms.
In the Heritage Room it will be used to display historical material.
