It has brass key for lock which has the Lebus name on the escutchion . the desk dimensions are Ht.42'' x W. 29'' X D. 24'' condition is good to fair, Iwould like to find out how old this piece is and it,s approximate value. Thank You. Mike

Can not possibly guess at its age without seeing the desk and the construction used !!  Need a pic of the front and back and one of the dovetail joints on the side of the drawer !! One of the lock and the name would also help !!
