    Just inherited this vintage desk. It has a pull down top that is carved and sits on 2 wooden pulls. All original hardware. No idea what it's worth or its age. Anyone know?

      Can't see the full leg, but it looks like it has some bulbous turns to it.

      Some additional photos would be helpful.

      Based on the leg and what I can see, I think it is shy of being an antique (100 years old) and probably 1930s at the earliest.

      Looks to be nice solid wood, but the condition issues will hurt the value.
