ABOUT PRODUCTID 259
This Mid-Century Modern desk, designed by Torbjørn Afdal for the Norwegian manufacturer Bruksbo in the 1960s, is crafted from teak wood with a matte to satin finish that enhances the natural grain and depth of the surface. The minimalist, balanced silhouette rests on four slender, tapered legs, imparting a sense of lightness to the overall form. The front features three spacious drawers with organically sculpted, horizontal handles seamlessly integrated into the drawer fronts — a signature detail of Afdal’s design and Norwegian modernism. All surfaces and edges remain smooth; the construction is solid and meticulously executed. The desk is preserved in excellent condition, following a recent restoration that included cleaning and oiling the wood, respectfully maintaining its authentic character and texture.The piece echoes the voice of 1960s Scandinavia: clarity of purpose, simplicity of form, and harmony between function and aesthetics. The warm, honey-toned teak tells a story of an era when designers sought balance between daily practicality and understated elegance. The three drawers invite organization, while the slender legs lift the form, suggesting openness and a modern outlook. Nothing is superfluous here — each detail speaks of reverence for material and clarity of vision.The desk can be paired with an upholstered chair on simple wooden legs to emphasize its modernist character. It will work well in a home office, creative studio,
