Mid-Century Desk & Dresser — 1960s

A compact mid-century desk and dresser in light teak, on cigar legs.

Light teak is the more useful tone. Where dark teak commits a room to the period entirely, this sits comfortably against painted walls and modern furniture without insisting on anything.

Cigar legs — tapered at both ends rather than one — lift it off the floor and are the reason a piece this compact reads as designed rather than merely small. It works as a desk, a dressing table, or a hall console.

Over sixty years old and unrestored, with wear and marks consistent with that.
