Fantastic model T95 office desk designed by Osvaldo Borsani and manufactured by Tecno, Italy 1956. The desk has metal and aluminium legs and rosewood veneer top and compartments. The rosewood shows a beautiful grain and deep warm colour. This nice sized desk has a cabinet on each side which can turn around 360 degrees, makes it possible to use the desk from both sides without moving it around, a very nice and ingenious idea. The smallest contains 3 drawers to be used individually, the bigger cabinet has an open part for books for example and has 1 big drawer. The keys are not on the picture, but the original keys are still with the desk which is fairly unique as they are often missing. The wooden parts of this desk have been fully restored. This desk has natural metal-coloured feet in good condition but with wear on the tripod bases. Super heavy quality desk with plenty of storage space although it doesn’t look like that. It appears to be very open and transparent which doesn’t make this a bulky design. The original Tecno sticker is also present.

Fully refinished in our own atelier with high quality UV protection lacquer with preservation of authenticity. Also completely structural checked and ready to use.
