This firm used clamps to make desks, but did not sell them. I do not know if they made their own, or commissioned others to make them.
The clamp is typical of many bar clamps, with these components:
a bar with semi-circular notches under neath, and a pin to keep the movable block from falling off the end;
a movable block held by an iron stirrup that engages the notches;
a fixed block with two holes;
a single spindle with ferrule and central pin.
The mark includes the maker's name, and pictures of the products: two chairs (one mobile, one not), and a sanitary base desk.
It is apparently branded (thermography) into the bar, without the
use of ink or paint.
