Mid-Century Italian Desk in Wood and Laminate

About the Item

Beautiful mid-century wooden desk designed and produced by a fine Italian manufacturer in the 1950s. The desk is typically 1950s with its hard, geometric shapes. Entirely made of light-coloured precious wood. The structure is very special, despite the hard shapes: in fact, we see 4 main legs supporting it. On the right side we see a rectangular drawer unit consisting of 4 drawers with brass handles, very useful for studies or study files. The top of this chest of drawers extends the entire length of the desk, thus creating a double top. This is surmounted by another top made of very light blue laminate, useful for quick cleaning but also for writing fluently. The desk is perfect for study corners or important studies.
