1950's Mid-Century Modernist Floating Top Curved Desk

About the Item

Stylize your room with this impressive writing desk. This unusual desk takes its inspiration from Art Deco design. It has a curved design that gives it a distinctive appeal and a large floating surface work area has an advantage over a traditional rectangular desk. Twin, floating pedestals sit atop six elegantly tapered legs that add extra detail. We love that this desk has plenty of storage, one side houses a storage drawer and a full extension file drawer while the other hosts three storage drawers to help keep you desk top clean an clutter free, each with solid brass bar drawer pulls. Restored; custom finish in high gloss black lacquer for an added dose of executive elegance. Impressive from all angles, scaled to fit into many different settings, the desk's finished back allows it to work mid-room for a flexible office arrangement.
