[QUOTE="LindseyPlataz, post: 2647609, member: 16339"]Hi I recently purchased this desk at a yard sale. It has beautiful carvings on the front legs and is made of tiger oak. Can anyone give me any information on when this might have been built and if it has any value? The lock mechanism must have been broken because the previous owner removed it and filled it with wood filler which totally depresses me!
