If you're looking to do something that looks pirate-y, or like the inside of a ship's cabin, you might consider some of these things:
Storm Interior Wall. The thumbnail on the marketboard doesn't do it justice, it's actually pretty nice and has small outlines of ships here and there, as well as red accents.Â
Riviera interior wall. If you want something simpler, combining this with the matching floor will lend well toward the basic inside-a-ship feeling. Also don't forget Riviera Partitions, if you're going with this theme. Uniformity helps.
Mahogany Partition Door also matches perfectly with the above, if you want to add a closable door anywhere in the room.
You already mentioned the Dead Man's Chest, always a great addition to a pirate-y room, but there's also the Shipping Crate, Wine Barrel, Terracotta pot, and the Cask Rack. You might try combining several of these. Unfortunately they don't stack since the crate and wine barrel are considered Tables.
There is of course all of the Storm furnishings that you can get from the Maelstrom Grand Company, it's always good to have a few in the mix for color accents and Lominsan flavor.
As far as desks go, for something that feels like it should be in a Captain's quarters, you could always go with the Knight Captain's desk and matching chair. They have a serious look to them, but should fit well in the motif.
Other suggestions: You already mentioned the galleas wheel. Get a Riviera Stall, an Eorzean Map or Map Table, and a Star Globe. Any self-respecting pirate should be able to navigate by the stars, so it's a good thing to have. A Mazlaya marlin, stuffed takitaro, or megalodon jaws on the wall, riviera lanterns and/or floor lamps for spare lighting.
The most important thing is to have fun with it and play around and tweak the layout often. Happy accidents happen with room design. Hope this helps!
