Younger Ltd / UK Younger Vintage Desk #30994

This is a vintage desk made by Younger.

A subtle two-tone design using afromosia and teak. It features slender, stylish legs. The handles, which at first glance appear simple, are intricately crafted upon closer inspection, making this a high-quality item in which you can sense the maker's attention to detail within the simple design.

After the war, modern Scandinavian design became very popular, and Scandinavian-style furniture began to be made in the UK as well. The UK's high level of technology and production capacity, which had a foundation in traditional furniture making, made it possible to produce high-quality furniture. Representative British manufacturers include G-PLAN, which was one of the first to adopt Danish design, and the long-established Scottish manufacturers AHMcIntosh and Nathan. There were also many other excellent Scandinavian-style furniture manufacturers. Scandinavian-style furniture made in the UK during the mid-century period is still highly regarded today for its quality and design that is comparable to authentic Scandinavian furniture, and has become increasingly popular in recent years.
