    Many times, yes. There can be small pieces of paper that are fastened to the back or to the bottom of a piece of furniture. There also might be writing in pencil or ink or even stamped impressions of the manufacture that would look like depressions in the wood.

    Have you found something on the buffet that you're wondering about, please?

    Thanks!
