Description:
Sweet Victorian Walnut Unusually Narrow Slant Lid Desk with
exceptionally carved four drawer base. The top section has well done deep carvings and
raised burl panels. The slant lid reveals the original interior with two small drawers
with birdseye maple fronts. The material on the writing surface appears to be
the original. The base is great! The desk also features some of the best carved pulls we have seen and
vibrant raised shaped burl panels, all in a petite narrow size. This desk was a
present about a century ago with an old label on the interior that reads: "Presented to Margurite
S. Bailey on her eleventh birthday by Grandma Bailey Nov. 19, 1903." We find
authentic notes like these to be as wonderful to find as cabinetmaker's signatures.
