Description from the seller
Lapel desk organizer in thuja burl with a drawer – 20th century
Elegant desk organizer made of wood and veneered with precious thuja burl, dating from the 20th century.
The piece features a harmoniously contoured structure, with three roomy compartments arranged on different levels, ideal for organizing letters, documents, and correspondence. At the bottom there is a practical pull-out drawer, finished with a small contoured wooden handle.
Particularly fascinating is the thuja burl, characterized by rich, ever-changing figuring, natural knots, deep grains, and warm tones ranging from honey to hazelnut and brown. The workmanship follows a sober, elegant line, letting the natural beauty of the wood be the main decorative element.
A refined desk accessory, both functional and decorative, perfect for a study, a library, or a professional environment. It can also be enhanced in a contemporary interior, paired with darkened metals, leather, glass, or lacquered surfaces, where the warmth of the burl creates an interesting material contrast.
The object is presented in good overall condition, with light signs of use and small irregularities consistent with the period and with traditional wood craftsmanship. The drawer is present and properly extractable.
Dimensions: 30.5 × 16.5 × 10.5 cm.
