    Not sure who makes it, was just told it was handcrafted in Paris and not even sure what its worth. I'm not sure any thing about the desk but it look vintage.

      It almost screams reproduction. Whimsical caryatids that are not like the vintage ones at all.

      Looks like a brand new reproduction.
    3. Celiene Celiene, 8 years ago
      Yep, new. But it's still pretty pricey.

      Phil, it screams beautiful to me, repro or not !

      It is beautiful, but looks too new. We need to see the inside of the drawers. and teh back of it. Post a second posting with more pics. Does it smell?

      The link I posted is almost exactly the same, but has a leather top. They say it's an estate piece, but that just means it came from an estate of a Doctor. There is no additional provenance.

      The lock in the center drawer looks new - but it's hard to really tell.
