Arne Vodder Desk for Sibast – Rosewood and Metal
About the Item
Rosewood desk by Arne Vodder for Sibast. This rosewood desk has a very nice look thanks to the wood grain and the use of chromed metal brings a modern touch to the desk which makes this piece of furniture a very Scandinavian design. In addition, thanks to the multiple drawers, it is very functional and allows you to store your stuff in an organized way. Arne Vodder was a very good designer of the Scandinavian modernist era. He was able to produce functional furniture pieces that were both traditional, thanks to the use of natural materials such as wood or leather, and modern, like with the metal legs of this desk. The details of this desk such as the drawer handles, the legs or the visible screws make it even more aesthetic.

Arne Vodder
Along with Vernor Panton, cabinetmaker and architect Arne Vodder was a leading light of what might be called the “second generation” of forward-thinking 20th-century Danish furniture designers — those who, following in the footsteps of Hans Wegner, Arne Jacobsen, Finn Juhl and others, first applied the skills, traditions and philosophical tenets of Scandinavian craftsmanship to a modern furniture idiom.
As a graduate student in architecture trained by pioneering furniture designer Finn Juhl, Vodder made his mark in the 1960s, when modern design had gained wide acceptance, particularly in the business world. Accordingly, many of Vodder's chairs are quiet in form — projecting an air of sturdiness and strength, rather than avant-garde styling.
Vodder’s aesthetic flair was very pronounced in his vintage cabinets and storage pieces — sideboards, bookcases, credenzas and buffets. In such pieces, Vodder liked to play with asymmetry. His bookcases often have a seemingly random array of variously sized shelves and nooks. A typical Vodder sideboard might have four sections, each different in purpose and look: an open stack of vertical shelves, and other cupboards covered with sliding panels in contrasting colored laminates and wood veneers.
As you will see from the works on 1stDibs, Arne Vodder had a sense of what kind of design was appropriate for which space: sobriety in the boardroom; playfulness at home.
