WHAT A WONDERFUL PIECE.  I GOT THIS FROM AN ANTIQUES COLLECTOR'S OWN PERSONAL STOCK.  IT'S A CAMPAIGN DESK,  JAPANESE MEIJI PERIOD.  IT'S IN EXCELLENT CONDITION FOR HOW OLD IT IS.  ONE FLAW I SEE IS THAT ON THE VERY BOTTOM OF THE RIGHT SIDE, THE BASE MOLDING SEEMS TO BE STICKING OUT VERY SMALL, 1/16".  THE PICTURES SHOW IT ALL.  I COULD HAVE POLISHED THE TOP OF THE PIECE TO MAKE IT PERFECT,  BUT I HAVE LEFT IT AS FOUND,  I LIKE IT BETTER LIKE THAT.  IT MEASURES 12.5" LONG AND 9" DEEP AND 9.5" TALL.  I HAVE SHOWN A PICTURE OF HOW THE TWO PILLARS SPLIT.  I CAN'T FIGURE OUT HOW TO SEPARATE THEM.  I DIDN'T WANT TO TAKE A CHANCE ON BREAKING ANYTHING.  THE HARDWARE IS PRESENT,  BUT I DON'T HAVE THE KEY.  THIS IS A VERY NICE ANTIQUE PIECE. WILL TAKE A REASONABLE OFFER !! I OFFER BUY IT NOW !! 1350 THIS IS NOT AN AUCTION, PLEASE BUY IT NOW QUICKLY, OR YOU CAN MAKE A GOOD OFFER. YOU DON'T HAVE TO WAIT TIL THE END OF THE AUCTION.
