UP FOR YOUR PLEASURE IS A NICE EARLY AND VERY ELEGANT MAHOGANY BANDED WRITING DESK. THIS IS PART OF A LARGE ESTATE CLEAN OUT THAT I AM SLOWLY STARTING TO LIST AND WILL BE CONTINUOUSLY DOING SO FOR THE NEXT FEW MONTHS. I HAVE SO MUCH STUFF STILL PACKED IN BOXES TO GET RID OF THAT I WILL PROBABLY SELL IT ALL WITH "NO RESERVE" SO AS TO MOVE IT OUT, AND WHAT EVER IT BRINGS... IT BRINGS! THIS IS A VERY FINE PIECE OF FURNITURE. THE PROPORTIONS ARE PERFECT AND I BELIEVE THAT IT IS DONE IN A HEPPLEWHITE STYLE. IT MEASURES 37" TALL TO THE TOP OF THE GALLERY BY 40" WIDE BY 21" DEEP. THE GALLERY IS JUST BEAUTIFUL WITH 2 MATCHING INLAYED CUBBY HOLE DOORS ON EACH SIDE FLANKING AN OPEN CENTER AREA ACCENTED BY SCROLL WORK. THE WRITING AREA BOWS OUTWARD IN THE CENTER AND CONTAINS A LOVELY OVAL INLAYED LEATHER TOP. THE DRAWER BASE IS BELOW THAT AND EACH DRAWER FRONT IS BANDED WITH EXOTIC WOODS. THE LEGS ARE TAPERED AND CHANELLED AQND HAVE BRASS TOE WRAPS WITH BRASS WHEELS. ALL OF THE DRAWER BOXES ARE DOVETAILED. THE BACK SIDE IS COMPLETELY FINISHED AS THOUGH IT COULD BE PLACED IN THE MIDDLE OF A ROOM. I CANNOT FIND A MAKERS NAME ALTHOUGH T IS A BLACK STENCILED SET OF NUMBERS ON THE UNDERSIDE, VERY SIMILAR TO THE WAY THAT STICKLEY BROTHERS CATALOGUED THEIR FURNITURE DESIGNS. T ARE A COUPLE OF MINUTE EDGE CHIPS , A COUPLE OF TINY MARRS, AND A FEW PAINT SPECS. NOTHING THAT COULDN'T BE TAKEN CARE OF BY A DELICATE HAND. T IS ALSO A VERY SUBTLE MARK IN THE LEATHER. OTHER THAN THAT IT IS STUNNING AND IN BEAUTIFUL CONDITION. PLEASE NOTE THAT THIS ITEM WILL BE PICK UP ONLY AS I CANNOT SHIP IT SAFELY. I AM LOCATED SOUTH OF CLEVELAND AND VERY EASILY ACCESSABLE OFF OF AT LEAST 4 TO 6 MAJOR INTERSTATES. YOU CAN REACH ME BY PHONE AT . I WILL OFFER THIS TODAY ON A 10 DAY, NO RESERVE AUCTION WITH BIDDING STARTING AT ONLY 19.99. THIS WOULD MAKE A STUNNING ACCENT PIECE TO ANY CLASSIC AND ELEGANT DECORATORS DECOR. CHECK OUT MY OTHER AUCTIONS FOR MORE STERLING, JEWELRY,ART GLASS, ART POTTERY AND OTHER DECORATIVE ARTS AND BE SURE TO ADD ME TO YOUR FAVORITE SELLERS LIST FOR MORE COOL ESTATE STUFF FROM THIS MASSIVE CLEANOUT!!! JUST THOUGHT I'D ADD THAT I HAVE PLENTY OF STORAGE SPACE AND WOULD BE HAPPY TO STORE IT UNTIL THE NEW OWNER CAN MAKE ARRANGEMENTS TO PICK IT UP...
