Art Deco Writing Desk in Oak, Belgium 1930s

About the Item

A striking and practical design, this 1930s Belgian Art Deco desk reflects the balance between craftsmanship and modernity. With a structured silhouette and refined material combinations, it stands as an elegant piece that embodies the aesthetics of its era. Design The desk is composed of a solid oak chest of drawers, bringing a robust and grounded presence. Teak is used for the top, lending a warm contrast and a smooth work surface. A pair of asymmetrical storage compartments defines the structure, offering both enclosed and open shelving. The metal strip at the base, with its patterned finish, subtly enhances the industrial yet sophisticated feel of the piece. Rounded edges on the top soften the overall design, while the geometric lines stay true to the Art Deco movement. Handles and locks add a functional yet decorative element, executed in a mix of brass and steel. A practical and stylish piece, the desk brings both visual strength and utility. Its unique composition and use of materials highlight the craftsmanship and design principles of the early 20th century. Condition The desk remains in good condition, showing signs of use consistent with its age. Wear on the metal base and heavy patina on the wood add character. Please note that the dark parts ingrained in the wood that you see on the top, sides and sections of the drawers are left intact because of the aesthetic appeal.
