Description
This desk is well known as model 54, made by Feldballes Mobelfabrik and supposedly designed by Kai Kristiansen in the 1950s. It has been recently widely discussed whether Kai Kristiansen actually designed this particular desk; however, he was designing for a long time for Feldballes Mobelfabrik, and many gorgeous pieces, including desks, came from that cooperation. There is no confirmation whether it was his deign or not. No matter who actually drew it, it remains one of the most spectacular and representative pieces of Danish mid-century modern design.
The overall desk dimensions are H: 74 / W: 136 / D: 72 cm.
It is made of teak and features a remarkably shaped top with beautiful wood grain. A bar cabinet is hidden behind the tambour doors with pivoting shelves and etched mirrors, and a circular storage section for trinkets pulls out from under the desktop. This vintage desk also features four drawers in front, the top one lockable (key included), and open storage space at the back as two adjustable shelves useful for books and magazines. This absolutely magnificent piece represents mastery of Danish mid-century carpentry, evident in the beautifully grained wood and the precision of details. Legs are detachable for more convenient transport.
Additional dimensions:
- three drawers 6,5 cm
- one drawer 13 cm
- ground clearance 26 cm
All the mechanisms have been checked by our team. The wood has been cleaned and protected with professional compounds. The desk top has been refinished with few layers of satin lacquer for longevity and easier maintance.as lacquer gives way better protection as oil. Overall, this desk is in fantastic renovated condition.
