Help me identify this desk? please?

By bhikkhu

We came across this desk at an antique mall a few weeks ago. Unfortunately, someone had purchased it just a few minutes before we had gotten there.

The back part (letter boxes and compartments) actually hinges backwards so that you can have a full flat top desk. When you lift it up (as pictured) the back of the desk has paper sized compartments for storing additional paper.

It's pretty brilliant, and I love the look... but I don't know anything about it...

I'd like to be able to setup some searches for something similar, but I don't know what keywords to use when looking for these.

Thanks in advance for the help

about $400 or $500 (but that might as well be $200 considering what it's worth) -- they got a steal. There was one small ding on the back left side, but it's in really great shape! Now I'm even more mad that I didn't get there in time!

Thanks for the response! I am excited to see if Lovig has any other pieces I like, and I can keep up on ebay looking for something similar to this. Much appreciated!
