Description

Hello. I bought this Antique King Louis 18th cenutry type French desk about 14 years ago from an antigue store. It is gorgeous. I also know it is probably a remake. However, the REAL ones are $50K and up. Some remakes are worth $15K from some sites I read. How do I know what mine is worth?
