Denmark, circa 1960

This simple, yet elegant desk was designed by one of Denmark's most acclaimed Mid-Century designers, Arne Vodder, whose profound understanding of organic materials made him an imposing figure in Danish Modernism. This piece likely featured within his collaboration with Sibast furniture during the 1950s and 60s, much of which was used to furnish distinguished offices all over the world, notably those of Jimmy Carter, Pope Paul V, and the UN offices in Geneva
