I was placing art at the gallery today and just started placing the antique furniture that I've been restoring. This is a secretary desk, circa 1930s-40s. It was covered in paint when I found it. I restored it to the original finish. Interesting story about how all the details came together... The front was hanging down so I had to put it back, tighten it and it opens great now... One of the little drawers on the inside was missing and I found one in a random pile of wood someone threw out... It fits like Cinderella's slipper. It was obvious this piece wanted to be saved.
