Mid-Century Studio Icon

Inspired by Arne Jacobsen’s 1952 “Society Table,” the Atelier Desk distills the original’s industrial-meets-elegant character into a clean, modern form. The black leather top wraps smoothly around a slim steel frame, echoing the refined tension of the mid-century design.

A suspended drawer module—available in oak or walnut and mountable on either side—introduces warmth, balance, and practical storage. The result is a desk that feels architectural, purposeful, and unmistakably crafted for focused work.

Material

Fine Grain Leather Surface
A fine-grain black leather wraps the desktop in a continuous skin, adding texture, grip, and a quietly luxurious matte finish. Durable and smooth to the touch, it develops subtle character with use while maintaining structural integrity.

201 Stainless Steel Frame
A slender tubular steel frame keeps the silhouette open and architectural. The brushed finish provides an industrial counterpoint to the leather’s softness and the drawers’ natural grain.

Solid Wood Drawer Module
The suspended drawer unit is crafted in your choice of solid oak or walnut. Both finishes offer tonal contrast against the leather top—oak for a lighter, Scandinavian note; walnut for a darker, saturated presence. Recessed pulls maintain a clean, uninterrupted face.

Solid Wood Multilayer Core
Beneath the leather surface, a stabilized wood core maintains rigidity across the desk’s span. It keeps the top thin, precise, and resistant to warping, ensuring the desk’s crisp geometry stays true over time.

Questions About The Atelier Desk

How long until I receive my order?

The Atelier Desk arrives approximately 4-6 Weeks from the day of order.

Our products take longer to arrive than most others on the internet. But there's a good reason why. Most of our pieces are made to order and ship directly from the source. We don’t keep warehouses or carry excess inventory. This is how we cut costs and pass thousands in savings back to you. But it also means you have to wait a bit longer.

What is your return policy

The Atelier Desk can be returned after receiving the order only if the product is damaged or unusable.

Our products are made to order. So we cannot offer returns for changes in preference. But we always do what we can to make it right.

To be returned, products need to be completely unused and still in their original packaging.

How can I track my order?

The Atelier Desk ships within 1-2 Weeks of order placement.

Once your order has been shipped, you will receive an email with tracking details, allowing you to monitor its progress. Simply use the provided tracking information on our delivery partner’s website to stay updated on your shipment.

Judge us by our looks

Our packaging is safe, simple, and proudly no frills. We don't think it makes sense to pay for things you throw away immediately.

That's why the Atelier Desk ships in the same protective packaging the manufacturer uses, covered in functional stickers and foreign stamps showing the journey it's been on.

We don't hide it and wear it as a badge of honor for the places our products have been and the people who made them.
