AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

Original writing desk, slender in its proportions, blending Scandinavian design with space-age lines, solid teak veneered wood; the maximum dimensions are: width 125 cm, depth 60 cm (center of the top about 54 cm), height 84 cm (top 78.5 cm).

There is no known industrial production, and one might suppose an artisanal, limited-batch manufacture that produced a small number of pieces.

Structurally solid, it shows signs of use, and minor veneer chips at the edge joints between the planes of the elements, the most vulnerable areas over time; there are also a few ink stains on the inner surfaces of the drawers.

However, overall these small defects do not appear seriously prejudicial, and the desk is available for immediate use.

Photographs are an integral part of the description.

As an item with substantial dimensions requiring special packaging, collection of the lot is preferable; I am nevertheless available to provide a shipping quote and the necessary on-site assistance, with times and costs to be defined based on the destination ZIP code that will be communicated to me by the buyer.
