This beautiful desk / dressing table by Danish designer Svend Åge Madsen would be a welcome addition to any office / bedroom. And will be when it leaves the studio on Friday!

As is the case for many Scandinavian designers from the mid-century period, little biographical information on Madsen has survived. While some rare designs date from the late 1950s, the overwhelming majority of Madsen’s furniture was designed in the 1960s.

Made from a mixture of teak veneer and solid oak this lovely piece of furniture is extremely versatile and has a lift up flap that could neatly store stationary or makeup and cosmetics, the handy mirror (which we have had replaced) a bonus addition. As with most of Madsen’s creations it epitomises the Danish modern style and features minimal decorative details.
