Description I have an antique stow davis executive desk. It is either solid walnut or mahogany. The knobs are solid brass. There is brass around each leg. There are 4 drawers on the left side and 3 on the right side. The bottom drawer on the right is file size and includes a wood apparatus for holding files. If the drawers on the left side are shut in a specific sequence, all the drawers will lock. I do not have the key for the middle drawer. The desk needs sanded and refinished. I am interested in selling as is. It is 30 in tall, 69 in wide and 38 in deep. It is extremely heavy but can be taken apart to move.
