USA, 1984. Sculptural lacquered wood construction with attached Luna Lighthouse lamp and floating storage cubby as base. Signed James Evanson.
Very few pieces of office furniture can be called both functional and beautiful, but Evanson’s New Empire desk would certainly be one of them. Meticulously pieced together, with hand-drawn and painted decoration, this large desk boasts not only a nuanced color palette, but smart and ergonomic features, including a spacious, curved interior leg area; a moveable wooden cubby and drawer, which also acts as a support; a built-in pencil holder; and its own Lighthouse, Luna. Panels on top remove to reveal hidden storage compartments, and wiring for the Lighthouse is discreetly threaded through one of the legs in the stunning front elevation.
Dimensions: 29"H x 60"W x 30"D
Condition: Good vintage condition; some wear to finish on storage cubby
Available for pickup or delivery in Chicago.
