Additional Information
Two Piece Lift Top Desk
This desk, with its simple design and elegant proportions, illustrates the quality that sometimes accompanies a simple form. The dark green exterior paint is original, as is the vibrant salmon colour of the interior. This piece was found in 1962 at a farm sale for a family near Odessa, Ontario.
