AI Appraisal

Description The wood looks mahogany but has a blonde color also on the drawer sections. It has a brass eagle in the center top curve. There is also gilt brass on legs and on the outside curve top. It has dark blue leather piece on the top of writing area. There isn't any other makers marks or signatures that I have found. Not sure of time period. The pictures don't do justice to this beautiful piece.
