I could find no markings, the bottom of the drawers have wood slots that the drawer slides in and out on. the inside of the drawers are just plain wood but got some kind of slanted lines in the wood, kinda like a detail pattern. Hard to desribe, there are no staples or nails that I can see, the drawers are all wood and glued together. I do not know what dovetail is, they ae not pegged either.
I was wrong about the drawers, it has 3 drawers on the right side, first one is open inside, 2nd one has dividers inside, the third is one deep open drawer, the center drawer underneath the desk has dip slot that is for pens and things, otherwise its open, the other side has a cabinet uptop, with a folding shelf inside, and underneath that cabinet door is one drawer that is also open inside. No markings or anything I could find on it anywhere. Also the picture showing on here makes the desk look shorter then it is, it is bigger then it looks in the picture.
I have a old office desk that I am pretty sure is an antique and would like to know if anyone can tell me more about it, such as who made it, how old is it, how much it is worth, and what kind of wood is it made of? any information would help. It has 3 drawers on one side that has the brass handles, the middle drawer underneath the center of the desk takes the old skeleton key to open it, and on the left side of the desk it has a cabinet door also with brass handle and when you open it it has a foldable wood shelf inside and underneath that door is another drawer. And on the top of the desk it has leather embedded in it. The top drawer on the right side is open inside, the 2nd drawer has slot dividers, the 3rd drawer is deep and open. The center drawer has a grooved slot in the front for pens or other items and otherwise is open. Also the picture showing on here makes the desk look shorter then it is, it is a longer then it looks in the picture. For some reason it made it look this way when I attached the photo.
