1980s White and Black Squiggle Desk by Ron Rezek

About the Item

While known primarily for his lighting design and his long career as an entrepreneur, this 1980s postmodern "Squiggle" desk was designed by the prolific American designer Ron Rezek. This desk has a white "colorcore" Formica table top, powder coated white corrugated aluminum legs, and a black aluminum wire management holder above the desk's modesty panel. This is an extraordinarily rare piece. In an article contemporary for Squiggle line of table's release, the New York Times said "The furniture recalls the corrugated metal siding and roofing used widely by local architects and here was elegantly adapted into fresh designs with spirit and humor." In good vintage condition with wear consistent with age and use, including loss of a small piece of laminate on one corner of the table table. Pieces are interchangeable with gray version also for sale, so colors can be mixed and matched. Will be disassembled and shipped flat but it is very easy to reassemble. 58" x 32" x 29"
