[QUOTE="thren0dy, post: 303221, member: 6142"]I am thinking about buying this desk, but I was wondering if anyone knew anything about it. I tried to find similar pieces online, and it seems like this piece is probably midcentury, Italian manufacture, with "patchwork" marquetry veneer, possibly olive burl? I asked my mom, who was an antique dealer for many years, but she has never seen anything like it, either. It's not dovetailed at all, and I can find no maker's marks or really any markings whatsoever.
