Danish Rosewood Executive Desk by Arne Holst-christensen
A superb Danish rosewood executive desk by Arne Holst-Christensen. This was recently imported from Denmark, it dates from the 1960s.
The quality is outstanding, this is beautifully made and is a great size. There is plenty of work space and storage space seven drawers on the front. The knee hole space is very large, with plenty of room for a good sized desk chair with arms.
The back of the desk is nicely finished with a double open bookshelf in the middle and a locking cabinet with a single shelf on either side. The drawer handles are brass, they contrast very nicely with the rosewood, which has absolutely gorgeous grain patterns and colour tones.
We have had this stripped and re-polished to a very high standard, the condition is superb. The legs can unscrew and detach for ease of transport.
The wood is Santos rosewood, which does not require a CITES or article 10.
