I have a small desk made by Shop of the Crafters. It is fumed oak with the top covered in leather. It measures about 29 inchs high plus a back panel, 41 inches long and 18 inches deep with one draw. Does anyone know anything about this desk and its value?
Thanks

James-
That SOC desk sounds similar to one for sale here in a local antique shop. It is tagged at something like $300 but it isn't in very good shape and is really probably worth about $175. However, this means little to the value of the desk since your desk might be a more rare form, in better shape, original finish and leather, etc etc. 'Hundreds' of dollars is really all I can say without seeing a picture!

Here's a leather top from a recent sale on eBay but it didn't make reserve at close to 1000.

...could be the same desk maybe??? This one is in the 1906 catalog reprint.

Ironically, someone else had this exact model on eBay maybe a month or two ago without the leather and with the tag missing. They didn't know what it was and listed it at 495 to start. Nobody bought it and they relisted at the same price and still nobody went for it (appeared to need work as well, from what I recall). I almost went for it Anyways, if yours is the same as the eBay one that didnt make reserve I guess you can assume its worth around the 1000 range or in other words all that eBayers were willing to pay, but of course it might be more in a retail shop.
