About the Item
An exquisite example of Scandinavian modernism, this 1960s ribbon mahogany desk by Severin Hansen Jr. for Haslev embodies the quiet sophistication of Danish design at its peak. With its slender tapered legs and beveled drawer fronts, the piece balances functionality with sculptural grace, offering both utility and timeless beauty.
The four drawers glide smoothly, providing discreet storage while maintaining the desk’s minimalist silhouette. The rich ribbon mahogany grain catches the light with subtle movement, adding warmth and depth to its clean lines.
This desk is more than furniture—it’s a statement piece and in our opinion one of the most attactive classic modern desks ever conceived.
