About the Item
This exceptional mid-century walnut desk is a true statement piece, combining sculptural design with everyday functionality. Its curved organic top showcases the natural walnut grain and gives the desk a soft, elegant silhouette that distinguishes it from standard rectangular models.
Designed to be freestanding, the desk is finished on all sides and features a bookshelf back with open shelving, making it equally impressive from the front and rear. Perfect for placing in the center of a room, it offers both practical storage and striking design appeal.
Design details:
- A beautifully shaped curved walnut top with rich grain and patina
- Left side with four dovetail-jointed drawers and sculpted walnut handles
- Right side cabinet with door for larger storage needs
- Back side with open shelving, ideal for books, decorative objects, or office storage
- Elegant tapered legs, giving the piece a light, elevated look
Good vintage condition. The desk is solid and sturdy, with a warm patina. As with any vintage piece, there are some inevitable signs of age, such as light wear, scuffs, and minor scratches, which only add to its authentic character and charm. Please see the pictures (zoom them) to make your own judgement. The pictures are a part of the description.
