Sligh Desk [Holland, Michigan with Gold Inlay Stencils]

By Hmintze, 8 February, 2012
Description

It's made of wood primarily, the finish is dark but the interior of the drawers is a lighter wood. I know it has apparently real gold stenciling inlays around the top. it's a large desk, my boss calls it a "presidential desk" but I'm not sure what classification that entails. There are five or six drawers I can verify this next  chance i am at their house. The wide drawer's handle fell off but it's an easy fix. I was hoping to get an estimation on price because they are trying to sell it through me and I don't want to 1) rip them off, and 2) rip any buyers off. Thank you
