<p>[QUOTE="Crossy, post: 9968864, member: 88577"]My first impression is English Georgian, an early 19th century oak piece. Fairly ‘crudely’ made so to speak, not of the finest quality but still of solid construction and has still lasted a very long time and probably still will. Handles are English, typical Georgian bracket feet, English lock setting, Georgian handles to the secretary drawers, and last of all being oak, a typical timber for the period. That being said, it could have been made in the late 19th century, but it would be unusual to make in that style. More photos would be great too! Hope that helps![/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
