About the Item

Elegant mid-century executive desk crafted in richly toned walnut, featuring a gently curved silhouette that gives the piece a refined, architectural presence. The generous rectangular top offers ample workspace, while the facade presents a symmetrical arrangement of six deep drawers and a central locking drawer, all finished with sculpted brass handles that add a subtle touch of sophistication. The warm grain of the walnut veneer is beautifully balanced by the clean lines and softened edges, typical of high-quality Italian craftsmanship of the period. Sturdy, well-proportioned, and designed for practical daily use, this desk is ideal for an office, studio, or home workspace where timeless design and functionality are equally valued.
