<p>[QUOTE="Nvntivs, post: 379482, member: 7975"]OK, thanks for the information so far. I still hope for an expert in this kind of furniture to see this topic. My guess was also victorian. I mean as far as I know - Georgian desks usually never are made of 3 detachable parts but are solid. Also the way the locks are made speaks rather for a production after the 1850 but before 1900. Even without taking the locks into the consideration, in my opinion the construction rules out any time after 1900. The leather top is not so important I think, since these were often replaced several times.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
