About the Item

The design continuum continues to evolve in this artistic luxury piece. The iconic kidney shape first appeared as a writing desk or dressing table during the Louis XV period of 16th century France, evolved in the hands of English cabinet makers in the 18th century, and is now updated in a beautiful burl wood. Sought after for its decorative, twisted appearance, burl wood arises from overgrown knots and outgrowths found within a tree’s roots or trunk, resulting in captivating variations alternative to grain. Celebrating the age-old form with current proportions and style, we retain the organic, ergonomic shape that hugs the body, making it multifunctional and beautiful to use as a desk, console, or vanity.Dimensions: Height: 30 in (76.2 cm)Width: 52 in (132.08 cm)Depth: 24 in (60.96 cm)Style: Scandinavian Modern (In the Style Of)Materials and Techniques: BurlPlace of Origin: VietnamPeriod: 2010-Date of Manufacture: 2024Production Type: New Custom(Current Production)Estimated Production Time: 4-5 weeksCondition: NewSeller Location: New York, NYReference Number: 1stDibs: LU6954240938232
