About the Item

A rare and exceptional 1960's executive writing desk designed by Arne Vodder, crafted from rosewood. This sophisticated piece showcases the elegance and functionality of mid-century Danish design, featuring clean lines, a floating design work top, and expertly integrated storage. The desk is thoughtfully composed with a spacious writing surface and drawer units on each side, offering ample room for documents and office essentials. The drawers retain their original sculpted rosewood handles, a hallmark of Vodder’s designs, while the fine grain and depth of the rosewood lend warmth and visual richness to the entire piece. A true statement of craftsmanship, this desk is ideal for both refined home or commercial offices and interiors seeking a piece of true Scandinavian modern heritage. About the Designer: Arne Vodder (1926–2009) was one of the leading lights of mid-century Danish design and a close collaborator of Finn Juhl. Known for his elegant, organic forms and focus on natural materials, Vodder's work combined minimalism with a strong sense of craftsmanship and comfort. His furniture — often produced by Sibast, France & Søn, or Vamo — was widely sought after by architects and executives in the 1950s–70s, and remains highly collectible today.
