Description
Ladies oak drop front desk. Brass gallery and hardware are, I believe, original. The locking mechanisms on the drop front and both drawers are in tact, although the keys are long since gone.
This desk was acquired by my great aunt when she bought her home. The home was built in 1847 and I believe this was a piece that had been in that family for a couple of generations as well. I would really like to know when it might have been made, by whom and where it originated if possible. I believe the family came from England. Any information would be much appreciated.
