Stag Antler anything is rare and unusual today, especially when it is completely covered in carved strips of Natural unpolished Antler. Finding Stag Antler Writing Desks are beyond rare and in our 30-years in the Antique business we have only found four in nice enough condition to purchase. The first use of Anglo-Indian we believe was to describe the British people who lived in India. Condition comments: Some small splits, chips, losses. Hinge actions working well. Top set of hinges replaced. less
