This is a mahogony Kittinger half circle desk with run-off or typing extension. It has one center drawer, a small extension that drops down on the left (12") and a typing extension (36" long and 26" high) on the right. There are brass wheels on the legs. Inside the drawer is a brass plate that reads; Kittinger, Furniture Craftsmen since 1866,
Patern T727-2-3TYR-York.
The measurements are approx. 6' x 6', the surface is 17 1/2" wide, a 14 1/2" skirt . There are scrathes on surface and should be refinshed. The typing extension is attached with a bracket and so can be removed if desired.
I had the desk for 30+ years and have used it. I bought it in Washington D.C. It is a beautiful piece and I always feel special when I use it. I used it in my business and was always a conversation piece.
I know that the White House has used Kittinger Furniture for decades and since I bought it in DC who knows........... Over the years I have googled this piece and have only found one similar but that one did not have a typing extension, so to the best of my knowledge, it is a rare piece.
I recently became disabled and had to move to a small apartment so I am considering selling it.
Thank you for helping me in appraising this. Donna
I have a set of tools that i would like to have appraise. I'm not sure if it is a complete set or not. They looked to be made out of cast iron and wood. I honestly don't know much about them. They were given to me when i purchased an old blanket chest. They were a friend of mine grandfathers. Any information would be greatly appreciated. I apologize for the vague description. One tool looks to be a leve. One looks like a planer or shaver. And i think the other is a hammer of some sort.
