<p>[QUOTE="Laura808, post: 264547, member: 4546"]I recently bought an old desk off of Craigslist, and I was wondering if anyone could help me gauge roughly how old it is. It has what looks like hand-pounded copper drawer pulls and I'm fairly certain that the wood is some type of elm. (It was in pretty rough shape when I bought it, and I've since painted it.) The only marking on it is a bird (emu/ostrich?) and the word "Pampa" on the locking mechanism of the middle drawer. Any and all speculation and/or information is both welcome and appreciated! Thank you in advance![/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
