    Got this cute drop-front desk at an antique store the other day!
    I have figured so far that it's made of Burmese Rosewood, but can't find out much else about it. There's a stamp inside really well hidden behind one of the drawers, with some writing I can't understand, and the picture of three elephants inside a triangle, two of the elephants seem to be holding up the third one (I Photoshop-enhanced the stamp for better clarity).
    I was told at the antique store that it was made in Thailand, but that's all they knew (probably figured it out from the stamp).
    Does anyone know anything about these? :)
