Danish Vintage Desk by Bodil Kjaer

About the Item

A stunning and iconic Danish vintage desk by Bodil Kjaer. This was made in Denmark by E. Pedersen & Søn, originally designed in 1959, this dates from the 1960’s. It is an extremely rare model, larger than the normal model 901 desk but with a very similar design. It sits on an incredibly stylish chrome base and is finished identically front and back with open recessed ledges on either side. This can be used as a large desk or even as a board room table, as it could seat eight people comfortably. We have had this stripped and re-polished to a very high standard, the condition is immaculate throughout. This was part of a whole range designed by Bodil Kjaer in 1959, we also have the model 901 desk with drawers and chrome handles, the matching sideboard and also matching cabinet, all seen listed under our other items for sale. Width – 215 cm , 85 inches Depth – 105 cm , 42 inches Height – 72 cm , 28.5 inches Knee height – 60 cm , 24 inches
