Another beautiful item, ready to leave our shop! This desk is from the 1930s or 40s. My Grandmother had one very much like it, I remember rooting through all the cubbies looking for little treasures. For this particular desk, we completely stripped off the old finish, replaced the veneer on the top drawer, re-built the cubby frame work, and sent out the hardware for re-plating. Of course, we also applied this beautiful new water-based finish which you see. I wonder what treasures will be stored inside this desk now?
