Restoration Project No 1

Today we picked up this lovely Davenport desk ( dating from around 1850 - 1890's ) from a local antique shop. We have been looking forward to having a little project to restore and fell in love with this piece. It's made from birds eye maple with a brass gallery round the top. It's going to need a lot of TLC but its going to be SO worth it.
Also picked up an old brass and copper jelly pan which is going to polish up nicely!
I intend to catch up on some back blipping soon now that I'm beginning to feel better.
