    Found this unusual desk at the mall. The dealer said it was unmarked and i am wondering if anyone has seen one like this. The desk itself is an oval shape with unusual pivoting drawers. 20180303_141440-1512x2016.jpg 20180303_142034-1070x1382.jpg

    Have seen similar before but agree that it is not common.

    Could have been free floating,it seems awfully low for a desk to me.

    This piece of wood looks very thin to be original to support drawers?

    But the way the drawers swing out, that side doesn't need to support them, does it?

    Not really sure, there seems to be pole inside through the drawers. Just thinking out loud, I guess. Thanks

    that green baize lining on the drawers is unusual for either a desk or a vanity

    Is it for a dining room and the green drawers for cutlery ?
