    Hi friends!

    I am seeking information regarding a vintage watchmaker / jeweler's desk. The inscription photo comes from a separate drawer and may not represent the company that created the larger desk piece. The desk's chair is attached at the bottom, a feature that I have had difficulties connecting to other models. The owner of the desk, as far as we know, was operating as a jeweler in the early 1900's.
    Thanks in advance!

    Your pictures are so tiny and poor quality that they are basically worthless for people to examine.

    As I've indicated before, if I try to expand images too much, the program will just distort them...........this is 5X.........just an FYI for the future....we tend to help others the best by GOOD images, of a decent size!!! Thanks!!!

    JMHO. not a watchmaker's. I bought a lamp from a former watchmaker's near Berne and got the table and old high chair for free.

    Nice lamp. I am attracted to these types of articulating lights, and machine lights. I have a few now, but sold many.
