Good Questions: Who Can Identify This Desk?

11.14desk.jpgHello AT,

I've been looking all over trying to identify a desk I saw pictured on a forum, but to no avail.

I like the unique style, but the obvious corollary is that it's not something every furniture retailer has...

The owner said he got it from an office that was getting rid of furniture, but it doesn't seem to be traditional office fare.

Any help identifying this desk, and hopefully where to buy it, would be highly appreciated.

Thanks! Kevin

This is not a positive ID, but whoever wants to win their cap needs to limit the search to office furniture, as that's what it is. This look was hott in the 1990s, especially among techies and consultants.

I'd start with old catalogs from the major office furniture manufacturers for an ID.

It could be two book shelfs with two lacquered doors notched into the sides. Blueprint (on Beverly Blvd.)used to have stuff like this.

Also check out the web and catalog for topdeq.com

Pretty good start, but we're not giving away caps yet....;-)

It kind of looks more like a receptionist's station than a desk, though lacking a modesty panel.
