Description
Antique roll top desk. My grandfather bought a saddlery in Roswell New Mexico in 1947 and turned it into a western wear store. This desk was there and very old at the time he purchased the building. I was covered in several coats of old paint. 60 years later my father had it dipped to remove the paint and refinish. They did not sand it so you can see black lines along the edges where the men in the saddlery would set their cigarettes, get busy and forget about them leaving them smoldering and creating black lines burned into the edge. The top matches perfectly but is not original to the bottom although they’ve been paired since the early 1900’s. You can take the top off if you want a standard desk. Both pedestals lock as does the ‘hidden’ compartment on the right side of the desk. 33d x 60w x 30” h (51”h including the roll top)
