The Cavour Desk by Carlo Mollino 1949

The Cavour Desk by Carlo Mollino 1949

Mid Century Modern is still one of my favorite furniture design eras for many reasons and the Cavour Desk by Carlo Mollino is a fine example of what the movement was all about. This curvaceous design sure looks ahead of its time considering its 1949 release. Mollino's philosophy "everything is permissible as long as it is fantastic" is reflected in his body of work which included architecture and furniture design. The Cavour Desk features .86" thick, plate glass top which sits atop a graceful and sculptural oak wood frame and drawer compartment. 97.2" w 29.5" h 35.4" d $12,071.00
