What does this mean?

Dear Brenda,

Thank you for your request and your patience. The apprised object is a desk, made out of oak wood and with the measurements of 36 x 40 x 26 inches. The desk is decorated with claw feet and floral carvings. Both decors are an eclectic mixture and date it in the late 19th or first half of the 20th century. Most probably this piece was made in the 1930s.
This piece is in good condition and there are no serious damages visible.
An estimation would be between 250 to 500 USD.
This estimation is based on actual recent past recorded auction sales of comparables. Retail "asking prices" can be higher and vary.

With best regards,
Georg
