This German desk from Ekawerk Horn-Lippe, hailing from the 1960s, captures the essence of mid-century modern tradition. The main color is a subtle, light wood tone with a gentle golden undertone and a satin-matte veneer finish that reveals a linear wood grain across the top and drawer fronts. The rectilinear frame presents two symmetrical sets of drawers, each with round brass pulls and understated keyholes, expressing a minimal, ordered design intent. Slightly tapered, conical legs—a hallmark of 1960s aesthetics—lend lightness to the otherwise sturdy construction, further supported by a discrete stretcher bar. Proportions remain carefully balanced, with precise joinery, crisp edging, and original hardware underscoring a strong sense of craftsmanship. The desk is preserved in very good condition, with only minor wear in the form of faint surface scratches and a light patina on metal elements, all authentic to its vintage character and era. The desk gently recounts the story of postwar German design, when clarity of form and function set the tone for modern living. The bright wood surface radiates the optimism integral to the interiors of the 1960s,
