Description

Friend gave me this kids school desk because he moved to tennessee and it was in great shape, i thought i would touch it up a little the seat was cracked in the back and i dissassembled it glued and clamp it so it looks like the day it was made or close to it. All iron, hardware and wood is original from the 20's. i gave it a light sand and a touch of varnish to freshen it back up but other than that it was in relatively good shape. Usually you find these all beat up and they need a lot of work to restore. This one is a real treat to look at and being so old was in really great shape. thanks for looking !
