<p>[QUOTE="Gold Dial, post: 2498468, member: 15972"]I don't believe the desk contains any plywood. If it does, it is just the bottoms of the drawers. The sides, back, and horizontal surfaces are all made of solid boards of oak that were then veneered with quarter sawn oak. When I bought the desk, quarter inch plywood panels had been added to the sides of the pedestals to conceal the damaged or missing veneer. That is why there are shreds of plywood still glued to the one side.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
