Fabulous Rosewood Flip-Top Desk by Peter Lovig Nielsen Mid-Century Modern

About the Item

This is a breathtaking, rare, rosewood desk by Jens Quistgaard of Dansk for Peter Lovig Nielsen. It was made in Denmark and has gorgeous rosewood grain across the top. This desk features a unique flip-top that allows you to turn it from a desk into a table. It has two flippable drawer inserts in the upper flip-top portion and four drawers along the front. One of the drawers has a lock, but the key is missing. The backside of the desk has cubbies that would be hidden if you kept the desk against the wall. This desk measures 34"T x 64"L x 29"D and is 38"D with the top flipped down.

  • Danish Modern Teak Peter Lovig Nielsen Flip-Top Writing Desk, 1975
    Located in Shippensburg, PA
    DANISH MODERN PETER LØVIG NIELSEN TEAKWOOD FLIP-TOP WRITING DESK With Lovig Dansk brand to underside Denmark, manufactured in 1975 (marked to two drawer undersides) Item # 306OPB21A This brilliant desk was designed by Peter Løvig Nielsen and originally was offered finished in teak, oak and rosewood. The present example is the soothing teak veneer. We love with this design how Lovig utilizes a hinged shelf on the desk top that flips down, allowing the profile and working space to be flexible - flipping down the shelf allows a much larger desk space, while still allowing all of the shelves to be used for storage and organization. The flipping shelf is comfortably divided with open paper compartments, two with a removable dovetailed box...
