Curved executive desk by Jules Wabbes, Belgium 1950's

About the Item

Designed by Belgian modern design pioneer Jules Wabbes (1919 - 1974) and manufactured by Le Mobilier Universel in the late 1950s, this desk embodies structured charm. Its sturdy chrome-plated steel structure harmonizes with the pronounced wood grain. The drawers, with their handsome handles bearing the designer's signature, support a robust boomerang-shaped top. With ingenuity, Jules Wabbes cleverly revealed typically hidden interior elements, completing the desk's remarkable construction. A presidential desk in beautiful condition. Please do not hesitate to contact us for any additional information. We would be delighted to assist you in any way we can.
