Rare wall-mounted flip-top three-drawer desk in palisander, brass, and black laminate by Arne Hovmand-Olsen circa 1960, Denmark. This example remains in very good all original vintage condition, with no major losses or flaws to the laminate top and deep and uniform patination to the palisander throughout.
