Writing desk by Kaare Klint, crafted in mahogany with a profiled edge on the tabletop and an apron with three drawers: a wide central drawer flanked by two smaller drawers, each equipped with a pull-out writing surface for added functionality. The desk features its original brass fittings, locks, and keys. A particularly elegant detail is the fine profiling around the drawer fronts, writing surfaces, and apron edges, as well as the beautifully shaped legs that give the desk its distinctive and sophisticated design. The top has been professionally restored. 
Designed in 1949 and produced by Rud Rasmussen.
