I've never come across a desk, perhaps it was a vanity at one time, but lost its mirror? The vanity that I have has a set of three drawers on each side, but without the mirror, it could look like a desk. I hope this helps. <br />SueSUZY8-TRACKhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11847632296019432948noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2525734152788032366.post-86870251689667264132012-01-23T12:36:46.391-05:002012-01-23T12:36:46.391-05:00Hi Sue!

The chest you posted is the closest thing I've found so far. I was wondering if your bedroom set is a similar look? (So I can get a closer to a time period) My desk has the same rounded front edge and horizontal detailing at the feet as well as vertical on the edges. The only thing that throws me is the hardware, it's sort of brass looking but it has little plastic/enamle squares inlaid into it. They are almost a golden/orange tortoise shell pattern. As a fellow furniture lover, does that sound legit to you?

Sadly the original sleigh bed that came with the set suffered some water damage, and my ex-husband broke the original chair that came with the vanity...but not on purpose...it was cracked and one day when he sat in it, it just fell apart!SUZY8-TRACKhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11847632296019432948noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2525734152788032366.post-54588852555762830352011-06-23T18:33:07.438-04:002011-06-23T18:33:07.438-04:00My wife and I are Art Deco freaks.
