1950s Mid-Century Modern French Desk with Return in Mahogany

Directors' desk with return and cabinet, mahogany, lacquered wood, brass, France, 1950s

French furniture at its finest, this desk with return and cabinet originating from the 1950s period is undeniably charming. The viewer's eye is seduced by the beautifully sculpted base. Slightly tapered with elegant inward curvatures, the leg transition seamlessly into linear, sturdy lines that supports the top with both poise and strength. With its black finish, the leg sharply contrast the warm mahogany veneer, serving as a bold, sculptural foundation for the minimalist design above. The top is sleek and understated, with a boomerang surface that follows a dynamic angle, subtly interrupted by the rich, organic grain of the mahogany. The cabinet, with its array of drawers in varying sizes, provides a clever, functional storage. The warm tones of the veneer infuse the piece with a natural allure, while its simplicity highlights the beauty of the wooden material.

Kindly note that the piece is in good, used condition with signs of age and use, including some wear marks. For further details, we encourage you to reach out to our team of design specialists.
