<p>[QUOTE=&quot;mark737, post: 4398987, member: 14894&quot;]I picked up this unusual desk the other day, which appears to be in an Art Moderne or Streamline Moderne style.&nbsp; Under the old and cloudy finish is some nice mahogany.&nbsp; The second photo shows the large drawer which appears to be solid mahogany all around with hand-cut dovetails.&nbsp; The third photo is the lock removed from top drawer.&nbsp; From image searches, the closest matches I could find were French desks from the 30&#039;s-40&#039;s.&nbsp; The most unusual part is the twisted iron &quot;stretcher&quot; supporting the leg.&nbsp; I&#039;d be interested in any thoughts on possible origin and if anyone has seen any other furniture with an iron support like this.&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; [ATTACH=full]371681[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]371682[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]371683[/ATTACH][/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
