Important writing desk by Christophe Gevers, 1971

About the Item

The unique and rare wall-hanging desk designed by famous Belgian architect and designer Christophe Gevers. Designed exclusively for a residential project in the Netherlands, 1971. Featuring a sleek chrome tube frame, it provides both structural support and an industrial aesthetic. The tabletop and top shelf, crafted from solid oak, create a beautiful contrast with the shiny chrome. One of the desk's standout features is the innovative use of plexiglass sliding doors, which allow for easy access to storage while maintaining a tidy appearance. The original design lamp is designed by Gevers as well. This desk reflects Gevers's dedication to both style and functionality. Its rarity and unique design make it highly sought after by collectors and design enthusiasts alike, ensuring it remains a timeless piece that captures the elegance and innovation of its era. We have a matching book shelf available in our collection. Both pieces come from the same original house.
