<p>[QUOTE="Gold Dial, post: 4304744, member: 15972"]Here is the finished desk. The lighting wasn't great, but the desk looks truly gorgeous in person. It is also far larger than it looks in the photos. It is 72" wide which is as large as roll top desks came (many double pedestal desks are only 54", a somewhat large one is about 60", 72" is massive).</p><p><img src="https://i.pinimg.com/originals/a3/13/7b/a3137b19bdabbc711e4e93fff091802c.jpg" class="bbCodeImage wysiwygImage" alt="" unselectable="on" /> </p><p><img src="https://i.pinimg.com/originals/d7/7c/cf/d77ccfa715b3208335bff5290ed79017.jpg" class="bbCodeImage wysiwygImage" alt="" unselectable="on" /> </p><p><img src="https://i.pinimg.com/originals/7e/c0/f2/7ec0f2d880378640ce9493b5ab412d10.jpg" class="bbCodeImage wysiwygImage" alt="" unselectable="on" /> </p><p><img src="https://i.pinimg.com/originals/75/e8/48/75e848e382769b3016e75e087cb7273c.jpg" class="bbCodeImage wysiwygImage" alt="" unselectable="on" /> </p><p><img src="https://i.pinimg.com/originals/fa/26/d0/fa26d05498cc6709aff5ddb4e7ac3d1d.jpg" class="bbCodeImage wysiwygImage" alt="" unselectable="on" /> </p><p><img src="https://i.pinimg.com/originals/b0/52/77/b05277f55d4dfa2a0d9e3f458829e997.jpg" class="bbCodeImage wysiwygImage" alt="" unselectable="on" /> </p><p><img src="https://i.pinimg.com/originals/a1/2b/3f/a12b3f7b637bd875d86191158a9da34e.jpg" class="bbCodeImage wysiwygImage" alt="" unselectable="on" /> </p><p><img src="https://i.pinimg.com/originals/68/7f/60/687f60a8002ed83ba4062f116b19963f.jpg" class="bbCodeImage wysiwygImage" alt="" unselectable="on" /> </p><p><img src="https://i.pinimg.com/originals/c5/ef/63/c5ef63aa25399b7cbabb5252031b0d33.jpg" class="bbCodeImage wysiwygImage" alt="" unselectable="on" /> </p><p><img src="https://i.pinimg.com/originals/73/0f/d1/730fd168345a116061fb1d11a9c6558d.jpg" class="bbCodeImage wysiwygImage" alt="" unselectable="on" /> </p><p><img src="https://i.pinimg.com/originals/d6/3f/82/d63f826185bb3f4ddfa4cf05009d9f60.jpg" class="bbCodeImage wysiwygImage" alt="" unselectable="on" /> </p><p><img src="https://i.pinimg.com/originals/8d/a9/9c/8da99c51ea1a024e5d16c0bddbc058b9.jpg" class="bbCodeImage wysiwygImage" alt="" unselectable="on" /> </p><p><img src="https://i.pinimg.com/originals/c5/92/b6/c592b64a30e6b8a5c1beb9832864a85c.jpg" class="bbCodeImage wysiwygImage" alt="" unselectable="on" /> </p><p><br /></p><p>Notice that all of the drawers are quarter sawn oak in the inside as well.
