Product description
For sale is a completely restored original Rio Rosewood Danish Writing Desk with a unique brilliance. Object: Writing Desk Description: Freestanding desk, front carcass with 3 drawers with dovetail joints (one of which is lockable) and a lockable carcass, 3 open shelves at the back Manufacturer: Danish furniture manufacturer Material: Rio rosewood -> Cites certificate from the German nature conservation authority for trade within the EU is available. (Certificate for commercial activities) Rio rosewood is the most sought-after and most expensive type of wood of all rosewood species. Rio rosewood (also known as Brazilian rosewood) is a type of wood from trees of the Dalbergia genus (Dalbergia) from the papilionaceous subfamily. Rosewood has been a highly valued precious wood for centuries. Since 1968, there has been an export ban on logs of this species in Brazil. In 1992, Rio rosewood was placed under species protection and in 1998 under stricter species protection. Until then, it was highly sought-after for high-quality designer furniture and executive office furnishings as well as for its unique sound properties for musical instruments. There is a certain risk of confusion with the term rosewood, which is called palissandre in French, rosewood in English and jacarandá in Portuguese. The English term rosewood is almost always incorrectly translated as "rosewood", but does not correspond to the German term Rosenholz, which refers to a single species of rosewood, the so-called Bahia rosewood '(Dalbergia decipularis)'. The genus Jacaranda, in which there is also a so-called rosewood tree (blue-flowering Jacaranda), is also different from the genus Dalbergia and therefore has nothing to do with rosewood. Source Wikipedia Color tone: Unique nuances from orange to dark reddish brown with almost black heartwood that runs through the surface as if painted. The shine on the photos or grayish or milky areas are due to exposure or lighting (reflections). The surfaces are silky gloss. Dimensions: W: 145cm; D: 73cm; H: 73cm Condition: The absolute madness! The desk is in excellent to mint condition. It has been lovingly restored by a restorer using traditional and natural materials. This desk outshines pretty much everything we have seen in terms of depth, vibrancy and nuance of rosewood over the years! It could hardly be better! OUR PRICE: Our Whoppah price includes the Whoppah gross commission totaling 19.36% (16% net commission + 21% pro rata Dutch VAT).
