Restored Mid Century Writing Desk, By B. Landsman, Walnut, Oak, Czech, 1950s

About the Item

Desk dimensions: Height: 76 cm (29.9 in) Width: 115 cm (45.3 in) Width: 65 cm (25.6 in) Legroom: Height: 73.5 cm (28.9 in) Width: 63.5 cm (25 in) This writing desk is an excellent representative of 1950s Czechoslovak design, a period known as Mid-Century Modern. It was designed by the acclaimed architect Bohumil Landsman, whose work is highly valued for its ability to combine functionality with refined aesthetics and elegance. The desk features a light construction on tapered legs and clean geometric lines, characteristic of Landsman’s signature style. The piece has undergone professional restoration, focusing on preserving its authenticity. The blockboard construction utilizes an attractive combination of woods—veneered in walnut and oak. This contrasting dialogue between the darker walnut and lighter oak gives the desk a unique visual rhythm. The original wood polish has been sensitively refreshed, highlighting the depth of the grain in both wood types. The desk offers practical storage space and, thanks to its timeless and subtle appearance, is a perfect addition to both modern and retro interiors. Our professional refurbishing team in Czechia has fully restored it according to the original process. It has been re-polished with polyutherane piano lacquer by our professional refurbishing team in Czechia according to the original process. This item features classic Mid-Century Modern (MCM) design elements. Elements of MCM interior design include clean lines, muted tones, a combination of natural and manmade materials, graphic shapes, and vibrant colors. Perfect for livelier, more colorful spaces.
