1960’s Rare German Desk in Beautifully Grained Hardwood
FREE Ground Floor Delivery on this piece within approximately 130 miles of Cambridgeshire. Further afield locations will incur a surcharge to send via couriers.
An exceptional and rare 1960’s desk purportedly handmade in Germany (as told to us by the seller). The desk is hand made from beautifully grained hardwood with a solid wood frame in black, tapering to the legs and brass cup feet. All drawers run easily and have been sanded and cleaned inside. The construction is solid, quality and with a very good weight for the size of desk. All drawers have dovetailed joints. We think the lines are very much of the mid Century Scandinavian and British aesthetic. We researched the desk to try to determine the designer and producer but found nothing that matched. A rare desk indeed.
The build and quality will mean this desk can only appreciate in value if looked after well.
Overall Dimensions: 76.5cm High, 110cm Wide, 59.5cm Deep
Kneehole: 60.5cm height clearance, 60.5cm wide

£0FREE Delivery on this item. More remote and rural locations will incur a charge.
A superb example of Globe Wernicke’s stacking ‘elastic’ bookcase. This is in the more rare and better quality oak veneer and radial cut oak, rather than the more common mahogany veneer ones. All glass and brass ware are original, together with the internal iron works for the ‘up and over’ scissor door lifts system. Pretty rare to see this on the Globe Wernicke’s.
Wernicke Co. produced the Elastic bookcase in Minneapolis, Minnesota in the late 19th Century (founded circa 1882) until they were bought by The Globe Files Co. in 1899. Wernicke invented the elastic bookcase and patented the designs.
Once Globe bought Wernicke the famous brand Globe-Wernicke began producing the elastic stack able book cases under patent in the USA. Thomas Turner also started marketing the design in England. Globe-Wernicke then expanded in to Canada, France, Belgium and Austria.
