Our family recently inherited this beautiful vanity/desk from my mother-in-law. It belonged to her parents and we know it was in the family as far back as the 1970s. We are wondering if it could be an antique and if so, we would like to know more about it's history and value. As you can see from the pictures, it is in good condition. The back side has some stenciled markings, but nothing indicating a manufacturer. We do see some holes where a mirror was perhaps once attached. The middle drawer has an interesting interior box with a hinged lid and a round recessed pull tab to open it. The upper right side drawer pulls out to reveal a second smaller hidden drawer behind it. The carvings appear to be hand-carved, but the dove-tailed joints are probably machine made. There are hardly any screws in the entire piece. We do see a few staples holding the back on. The entire desk is solid wood and very heavy, with a beautiful shimmery grain.
