About the Item

This stunning Danish Vintage Mid Century Modern Teak Desk by renowned designer Arne Wahl Iversen, crafted in the 1960s, is a true statement piece that embodies the timeless elegance of Scandinavian modernism. Featuring clean lines, a minimalist silhouette, and the rich warmth of natural teak, this desk is a perfect blend of form and function. Its smart, double-sided construction allows it to be used as a floating desk in the center of a room, making it an ideal choice for open-concept living spaces, home offices, or design-forward studios. The desk comes with a working key to lock the center drawer, adding both charm and practicality. Measuring 56.5 inches wide by 28.75 inches deep and 29 inches high, it offers ample workspace without overwhelming the room. Recently refinished, the desk is in excellent condition, ready to be enjoyed for decades to come. Arne Wahl Iversen was a prominent Danish designer known for his sophisticated and functional furniture during the golden era of mid-century design. With a deep appreciation for craftsmanship and material integrity, Iversen created pieces that reflect the core principles of Danish modernism: simplicity, utility, and beauty. His work, often executed in teak and rosewood, remains highly sought after by collectors and design enthusiasts for its subtle elegance and timeless appeal. This desk pairs beautifully with a wide range of interior styles. It’s a natural fit for Scandinavian modern interiors, where its organic teak grain and uncluttered form echo the calm and simplicity of Nordic design. In contemporary spaces, it brings a warm, vintage contrast to sleek finishes. For eclectic or bohemian rooms, it serves as a grounding piece amid layered textures and patterns. In industrial settings, its natural wood and refined silhouette provide a welcome balance to raw materials like metal and concrete. It also complements Japandi and minimalist interiors, where every piece must serve a purpose while contributing to a serene, cohesive atmosphere. Whether used as a writing desk, creative workstation, or focal point in your home office, this Mid Century Modern masterpiece by Arne Wahl Iversen is more than just furniture—it’s a piece of design history that brings style, sophistication, and functionality to any space.
