The teak has a warm luster and a beautiful, vibrant grain across the writing surface. The soft design, the elegant placement of the legs and the characteristic handles give the desk a harmonious expression that is typical of classic Danish design.

The desk is double-sided and has a pull-out shelf on each long side. The tabletop can therefore be easily expanded when you need a larger work or dining area.

The storage is well thought out and consists of a total of five drawers. Four drawers are divided into two drawers, while the opposite side has a wide drawer with a practical insert for smaller items. There is also an open storage space with a removable shelf.

The generous cockpit is 57 cm wide and provides plenty of legroom. Most desk chairs can easily fit in.

Since the desk is freestanding and equally carefully crafted on both sides, it can be placed in the middle of a room. It fits just as well in a home office as in a study or library.

The double pull-out leaves make the model particularly useful when two people need to work at the same time or when a larger table surface is needed temporarily. An excellent choice for students or those living in cramped quarters who want to combine a desk and dining table on a limited floor space.
