Condition Details: This extraordinary American-made executive desk has recently undergone a comprehensive and transformative restoration process and the results speak for themselves! The walnut veneer shows only one gouge on the bottom inner portion of the drawer box and can be seen clearly in the detail photos provided. There are also three minor veneer repairs present (shown in the photos provided). With that said there are no other stains, deep scratches or other signs of damage whatsoever and variegated woodgrains unique to the walnut species are absolutely stunning in natural light.
All six drawers open and close with ease and feature one filing cabinet drawer as well as nifty organizers built in two side drawers. The genuine leather hide desk top is in new, never-used condition and shows only the wear of a once living animal (scars and ranch brands etc). The chrome legs show minor tarnishing (shown in the video provided) but are free of rust and are weight-bearing.
This desk is highly functional, structurally sound and ready for a literal lifetime more of use thanks to it's recent restoration. Please view all photos and video for details on this one-of-a-kind executive desk's current condition.
