About the Item

A striking example of industrial design, this duotone metal desk by Marko features a distinctive blue and gray finish that embodies mid-century utilitarian aesthetics. With its robust construction and thoughtful design, this desk offers both practical functionality and a bold visual statement, enhancing a contemporary home office or creative workspace. The desk is characterized by a durable Formica top with gently rounded corners, providing a smooth and resilient work surface. Its slender blue metal legs offer sturdy support, complementing the matching two-drawer cabinet smartly integrated on one side. These blue drawers contrast subtly with the gray elements, creating the 'duotone' effect and providing convenient storage solutions while maintaining a clean, minimalist profile. In original condition, this piece shows significant character through visible wear, rust, dents, and scratches, all consistent with its age and use. This authentic patina tells a story of its past, adding to its industrial charm. Versatile and durable, this Marko desk is ready to bring a touch of vintage utility and unique color to any modern interior seeking a blend of form and function.
