Vintage teak and chrome metal desk by Luigi Bartolini, 1960

Modernist desk by Luigi Bartolini. Worked in teak, this desk features a beautiful teak wood top and a suspended pedestal in the same wood with stylized chrome-plated metal handles. It rests on a black lacquered square tube structure typical of the modernist movement. Like the desks of Pierre Paulin and Pierre Guariche, this desk has a straight, curve-free design, giving it a certain elegance. The contrasting colors of wood, black and silver cuffs are equally harmonious. It has beautiful working proportions, being 120 by 75 deep, which sets it apart from most 120 desks, which are usually 60 deep. There are a few minor signs of use visible in the photos. Ideal for telecommuting, this Bartolini desk combines working comfort with good looks. Reference : 306669
