<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Ghopper1924, post: 3768214, member: 5170&quot;]French or Romanian Rococo Revival mahogany desk. I know that Romania and France share some cultural ties; at one time Bucherest thought of itself as the Paris of east Europe.</p><p><br /></p><p>Those look like Sevres plaques; at least they&#039;re in that style. I&#039;d say ca. 1850-60 or so.&nbsp; The desk could very well have been made in France. Very nice! I wish it were mine. I would never sell it <img src="styles/default/xenforo/smilies/smile.png" class="mceSmilie" alt=":)" unselectable="on" /></p><p><br /></p><p>Oh, and a Rococo Revival woman&#039;s desk just sold at auction here in my part of the U.S. Midwest. Not dissimilar to yours, but the carving was better. On the other hand, it did not have any plaques like yours does. It sold for almost $3K. Not saying that yours would sell for more or less than that, but it&#039;s good to know, right?[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
