Description Been trying to find out any info I can since I purchased the desk. Need help identifying the actual style (desk/vanity) n what period its from. I have googled and googled and researched and viewed a thousand photos until they all started to look alike. My guess is its Circa 1900-1950 and think its a Pedestal or Kneehole desk but there's no leather top or cupboard. Its mahogany and has acorn looking carved inlays. Seen similar desks listed as Georgian style. It has 8 drawers (one double drawer) brass finish handles and dovetailed joints. The screw's date it around 1900 but don't know if its a kneehole, Georgian, Victorian, Edwardian, or even a writing desk, a vanity desk, a dressing table or a library table. (Oh and it isn't double sided as the partner desk is and the top isn't separate as a original pedestal does) the measurements are around 30 H X 23D X 44W roughly. Any info at all at this point would be much appreciated! Thanks
