special remarks: few signs of use. The steel desk from gispen was a custom project: the body was painted in high-gloss ral 2001 for a customer. Now the household has been moved, and the furniture has been returned after 20 years of use. The cabinet, drawers, and legs were previously sanded, filled, primed, painted twice, and baked in an oven. A coating like this couldn't be more durable. After 20 years of use, some imperfections in the paint had to be removed and the tabletop refinished. Now the furniture is ready for a new era of use as a desk.

we present a 1950s version of a desk from the netherlands' most renowned steel furniture manufacturer, gispen of culemborg. Manufactured with the highest quality and durability, this piece of furniture, after approximately 70 years of use, is well restored and now perfectly ready for a new use. We only had to remove the traces of study; the structure has been perfectly preserved. With its three spacious drawers, the desk offers ample storage space. The pleasant linoleum surface makes working easy and offers plenty of surface area. See less
