An exceptional piece of Scandinavian craftsmanship, this teak desk by Claesen & Maerus for Eden encapsulates the refined functionality of the 1960s. Designed with a balance of form and practicality, it embodies the clean lines and thoughtful details characteristic of the era.

Design

The desk features three tambour sliding doors that reveal ample storage space, keeping essential items within reach yet neatly out of sight. Thoughtfully designed compartments offer organization for documents and accessories, while the broad work surface ensures plenty of room for daily tasks. Four drawers line the front, each fitted with discreet brass handles that enhance the desk’s understated appeal. Solid teak construction underscores its durability, while the rich patina adds depth to its natural warmth. The recessed base and black accents provide a subtle contrast, lending a sense of lightness to the robust design.

Functional and timeless, this desk showcases the careful consideration given to both aesthetics and usability. The tambour doors operate smoothly, reflecting the craftsmanship associated with Scandinavian design. The combination of clean geometry and natural materials makes it a versatile piece, fitting seamlessly into various interiors.

Condition

The desk is in good vintage condition, with minor signs of wear consistent with its age. The wood has been well-preserved, and the tambour doors and drawers function smoothly. The inside of the tambour doors are missing the previous 'division elements'. Any small imperfections contribute to the character of the piece.
