      Looks like a leather top desk with glass over it, would that be correct?

      I misread your post above. You did explain the top. Two makers come to mind that used bronze and brass accents. Maddox and Maitland Smith.

      Both of those companies also used the leather inset on the top. I have a 1951 Maddox but not the fancy trim accents.
