About the Item

De Coene, writing desk with drawers, oak, The Netherlands, 1960s The design of this desk illustrates a strong and solid construction in oak. This is realized by the sharp and clear lines, which are visible at the top and the base. The side legs are connected with a wooden slat, giving the table a balanced and sturdy appearance. Functionality also plays a major role in the design, which can be seen in the presence of two drawers on each side, providing storage space for small stationary. Moreover, the elongated shape of the table top offers plenty of space to work comfortably at the desk. De Coene was founded in 1887 in Kortrijk (Belgium) by Jozef de Coene, who was at that time 13 years old. In 1895, his younger brother Adolphe joined the company. In their early years, De Coene was inspired by Henry van de Velde, Art Deco and the Arts & Crafts movement. The company made many custom made furnishings which leads to an expansive growth. After World War One, the brother visited the United States where they became acquainted with laminated wood production, and purchased a wood-stripping machine. They were the first company that made triplex in Belgium which led to the ability to mass produce. In 1954, they received the right to produce Knoll furniture. But although the company produced on a large-scale, they were still world famous for their meticulously detailed, high-quality and Art Deco inspired furniture.
