★★★★★“Spend the extra to get it refurbished!”Dustin, Etsy review

A refined example of Danish modern craftsmanship, this Kai Kristiansen teak desk dates to the 1960s and showcases the designer's celebrated balance of elegant form and functional practicality. The desk features a warm teak surface with carefully considered storage — including drawers and organizational compartments — all resting on clean, tapered legs characteristic of the period's best Scandinavian design.

Kai Kristiansen (1929–) is one of Denmark's most revered furniture designers, known for his meticulous attention to detail and his ability to create furniture that is both beautiful and supremely livable. His pieces are hallmarks of the Danish Modern movement and are highly sought after by collectors worldwide.

Available in vintage as-pictured condition or fully restored with professional refinishing and hardware restoration.

Condition

As pictured: cleaned, with drawers, doors and structure in working order. The original finish and its wear are left as they are.

Restored: fully refinished in our New Jersey workshop. The old finish is removed, chips and scratches are repaired, and the piece is sanded, stained, glazed, toned and lacquered by hand, with drawers, doors and hardware adjusted to run smoothly. Most restorations take 4 to 8 weeks before shipping. Some are quicker and some take longer, depending on the piece, and we'll give you an estimate when you order. See our restoration process

Some pieces are only sold restored, and lighting and upholstered pieces are only sold as pictured.

Every piece is one of a kind and sold as a final sale, so ask us anything before you buy.
