My mother purchased this item in the Southeast the early 1990s during the time she collected Arts & Crafts furniture. From Georgia, she moved this desk to Tennessee, then to Kentucky, and then to New Mexico. Following her death, my father moved the desk back to Kentucky. A year after he died, I moved the desk to Maryland. It's a very nice piece of antique furniture that would fit in virtually any household. Like many Arts & Crafts pieces, its simple lines go with just about any other style of furniture. It would make a great child's desk or would perform well as an accent piece in a living room. In addition to the 27.5 x 15.5 main drawer, two smaller drawers and a slat organizer/holder are attached to the back of the desk. Each of the drawers have pyramid drawer pulls. In addition to this desk, I'm also listing my mom's other Arts & Crafts furniture including: a J. K. Rishel Company dining room suite, a Globe-Wernieke attorney's bookcase, and some other pieces.

However, it retains most of its original finish and all of its original design. The most significant scratches are found on the back (see photo) and aren't visible when the desk is placed against a wall. less
