An exceptional Danish modern rosewood desk designed by Severin Hansen Jr. for Haslev Møbelsnedkeri, crafted in the 1960s. This piece is a quintessential example of Hansen’s celebrated aesthetic—defined by his signature mitered corner joinery, precise proportions, and minimalist clarity. The desk is constructed from richly figured rosewood with deep, expressive grain, giving it a warm yet sculptural presence. Four drawers, each with original brass escutcheons and working locks, offer ample storage while maintaining a clean, symmetrical façade. The interiors of the drawers are finished in a light birch tone, providing a subtle contrast and highlighting the craftsmanship. The desk rests on slender, tapered legs that elevate its form and reflect the lightness and balance of classic Danish design. This piece has been professionally refinished and remains in excellent condition. Perfect for a home office, study, or as a statement piece in a design-forward interior, it stands as a timeless example of Scandinavian functionality paired with refined artistry.
