This is going to be a kids desk. It is probably from a 1940s - 1950s oak office desk. It is the lower part of the desk that a type writer would sit on. It's a perfect size for a small kids desk. The top is painted with chalk paint and I used chalk board paint to paint a small chalk board on the desk top. We recently opened an antique business at a local antique mall "Good Old Days" 601 E. Crestwood here in Victoria where I will have this desk & chair for sale for SOLD
