About the Item

Model 36, designed by Severin Hansen in 1958 and produced by the esteemed Danish manufacturer Haslev, is one of the most exquisite desks to emerge from the Danish Modern period. Crafted in luxurious rosewood, the desk exemplifies the timeless elegance and meticulous craftsmanship for which mid-century Danish design is celebrated. The design’s hallmark feature is its precise miter joints, a signature detail of Severin Hansen's work. These flawlessly executed joints not only demonstrate exceptional woodworking expertise but also enhance the clean and seamless lines of the desk. The angular legs blend harmoniously with the overall structure, creating a visually balanced and cohesive design. The rich rosewood grain adds depth and character, with its natural tones and patterns amplifying the desk’s sophistication. The desk’s proportions are thoughtfully designed, offering both functional workspace and aesthetic appeal. Its minimalist design allows it to blend effortlessly into various interiors, from classic to modern, while still making a statement as a standalone piece. Model 36 is a testament to Hansen’s ability to merge function with form, resulting in a timeless piece of furniture art. As a collector’s item, it remains a sought-after example of Danish craftsmanship and design heritage, embodying the enduring beauty of the Danish Modern period.
