Item Description

Teak Secretary "Livø" in Danish midcentury modern style imported directly from Denmark. Refurbished by LaNoBa.

Time Period: 1950´s
Dimensions: 40" High x 32.5" Long x 18" Deep
Material: Teak

About the Design: 
Danish secretaries were the rage in the 1950s and 60's due to the high degree of functionality. Featuring large drawers on the bottom and smaller drawers on top, the idea was to allow people to expand their storage space with great design. Additional features included a pull-out desktop for working or to be used as a dressing table.

With the design flexibility, the secretary works as a desk, dressing table, dresser, entryway piece or dining room storage. This allows for a lifetime of use as the secretary can be moved around the house based on changing needs.

About the Product: 
Storage, functionality and design blend brilliantly in this secretary. The three lower drawers have eye-popping hand carved handles which show the attention to detail and craftsmanship. With three upper drawers for smaller items as well as open storage, you have a lot of flexibility. The pull-out desk easily extends outward making this a great work station or storage unit. 

LaNoBa:
LaNoBa is located in Jersey City, NJ and sells Danish midcentury modern design from the 1950s, 60s, and 70s. Furniture and interior design directly imported from Denmark.
