Where the hinges connect. The right side of the hinges closest to safe that piece of wood is connect to the safe as in its like built on to the safe its not a separate piece of wood. If that makes any sense at all.

okay desk details I will post tomorrow when im at the office. It is actually red felt for the top of the desk. The safe is made into the desk like it for no reason looks as if it was made to fit after purchasing the safe or before purchasing the safe.

Kingset pictures will be in about 3 weeks due to its sitting in storage. But by chance I could have mis looked it and it not be an exact match. Sorry for making yall wait. I will be moving and have my hands on that item in 3 weeks.

I have looked everywhere for anymore info but cant seem to have any luck. I will take more up close in depth pictures tomorrow. This was my grand fathers desk that I know he purchased soley for craftsman of the safe but when he was still living I was around 12 and didn't care to much about a desk unfortunately. I just know they traveled frequently to Germany. I have a king bedset that matches this desk that I would like info on to. ( will post later ) My grandmother did tell me the bedset was handmade. Now that im older I would love to know the history of all of it.

So do any of you know someone on here or close to fort worth tx that would know more information on this. I just am curious to know as if I really do have something of great value, or less value because the safe and desk are probably by two different people. Plus I just want to know information like where this exactly came from and such.

okay regarding the inside label of the safe I was searching it and came across this post on this site telling someone what it stands for. This is what he wrote.

The "K.u.K. Hoflieferant" (German/Austrian). Were Purveyors to the Imperial and Royal Court, and were allowed to display the double-headed eagle.  Royal warrants of appointment have been issued for centuries to those who supply goods or services to a royal court or certain royal personages. The warrant enables the supplier to advertise the fact that they supply to the royal family, so lending prestige to the supplier.

The inside label to the safe does say K.u.K. Hoflieferant. I have no clue if this matters or helps anyone but thought I would add in.

I have a question regarding a replica Stradivarius Violin. I have the case along with the bow. I went today to get it looked at just because I have seen some replicas worth an okay amount of money. The man at the store was more amused with the bow then the violin. This one in particular is nothing fancy as strings have been broken and such. I just want to know if someone thinks it can be worth anything. If so I can take time and go get some pictures. Thanks in advance.

I am in fort worth, Texas about 30 min west of there. Tomorrow I will post a full picture of it as it is at my office. The only reason I didn't take a full picture is due to the computer, printer, etc on top of the desk. I do have this picture of the corner as well as the key that goes to the safe.
