This elegant tripod desk by Jacques Adnet dates from the 1950s and exemplifies refined French modernism. Crafted in oak with a lightly satin varnish, it features a minimalist silhouette combined with practical functionality. The desk includes a drawer with its original key, both in perfect working condition. Its sculptural three-legged base and integrated storage make it both visually light and highly usable. The model is referenced in the French magazine Votre Maison in 1955.
