NO SHIPPING - PICK UP ONLY This neat old desk is all wood with solid walnut and walnut veneers. I got it from an antique store almost 40 years ago. It’s extremely functional and very cool looking. The only reason I am selling is that we are redecorating after moving to a new house and need something completely different. The top measures 30" (2' 6") deep, 58" (4" 10") wide, and 29" tall. There is an eased edge strip all around the top. The sides and back extend down about 23" where they meet the leg pedestals. It’s a full wrap around design in back. There is a leg pedestal on each side and all four feet are adjustable. The drawers are dove tailed with wood pulls about 5" long. There is one double size drawer for files plus five single size drawers. All the drawers have moveable inserts to create different sized storage spaces, plus one pencil tray with several compartments. There are two slide out writing extension boards (one on each side) with small metal pulls. There is probably less wear than would be expected for it’s age, but normal signs of age and use are unavoidable. There are some ancient marks that were there when I got it, and a few more dings of my own along the way. The biggest condition issue is damage from the movers during the relocation mentioned above... a few pieces of veneer are missing from the lower right side. This is all easily reparable when I had an expert look at it, and I absolutely would have done so except for the redecorating previously mentioned. Instead, I’ll just price it on the low side and let the new owner take care of things as they wish. I can’t really ship this due to size and weight, but you can pick it up in Bean Station, Tennessee (less than 1 hour NE of Knoxville and 1 hour from the Smoky Mountains... a nice place to visit if you haven’t been here!). If you change your mind when you see it there’s no obligation, of course. Please see the photos. I’ve provided the information that I like to see when I am buying things for myself, so I hope it’s complete. If not, please email any questions. I have several other items for sale now that also need pick up, so please check out my other listings. Thanks for looking. ***** NO SHIPPING for this item - LOCAL PICK UP ONLY *****
