Danish vintage teak design desk by svend age madsen for hp hansen, 1960s

Design desk. An exclusive mid-century modern large desk was designed by svend madsen and manufactured by hp hansen in denmark in the 1960s. This elegant desk features a bowed large top with beautiful teak wood grain and a raised lip edge. The desk provides four drawers on each side with solid teak recessed pull handles, while the back features a large shelf for books and a locked cabinet. The front drawers and a back cabinet have a working lock. Two keys are included, which fits all the locks. The desk rests on four solid teak legs that carry the top plate giving the piece a floating aspect. A vintage writing table! We had the top refinished with a cellulose laquer system adding a layer of robustness to the top. There are signs of use and time on the base frame and the drawer banks but none of those disturb really. For this reason we give this desk a very good vintage condition mark.
