I’m making a corner desktop to go with an existing corner printer shelf that was edged with a nice nose or panel moulding.
I have looked at White River, Austin Hardwoods and World of Moulding catalogues without finding a match.
Anyone know where I can find matching or near-matching moulding?

A few passes over the router table a few set ups with common bits you could easily make some similar , or ask a local cabinet shop to run the small amount you need .
I hadn't thought of that. A one pass each with cove and a half round would come close.BruceT
You may have to get a bit creative , pun intended and it may take a few passes but it looks very doable .

Dusty, you'll love this. I got ahold of the cabinet shop (Mr Corner, in Santa Ana, CA) and asked where to get that molding.
He said "Oh, you can't find that anywhere. We made it ourselves with a few passes on a router table."
Now he runs a similar molding on a shaper in one pass. In fact, he gave me 15 feet of the stuff.
Bruce,
If you have trouble getting it done with a combinataion of passes over a couple of bits, consider making it in two pieces and glueing it up.
Break it down into a simple cove and a simple nosing. Draw a vertical line on your picture where the cove flattens out and the nosing starts and imagine it were two pieces of simple moldings.
Good luck.
Frank
