Product description
This is the Pierre Jeanneret Pigeon Hole Desk, a canonical piece of mid-century design. The desk's desirability stems from its architectural silhouette and its historical significance within the Chandigarh project. Constructed from solid wood, the desk features a rectangular top with a dark, textured surface, likely leather or a similar material. The front elevation presents a single drawer on the left side, positioned above an open storage compartment. The reverse side is characterised by a series of open 'pigeon hole' compartments, designed for document storage. The piece is finished in a warm brown tone, highlighting the natural grain of the wood. Painted markings, 'DFO/07/BC', are visible on the rear edge, indicating its original institutional use. The desk is in unrestored condition, retaining its structural integrity and original character. The wood exhibits a rich patina, consistent with its age and history of use. The piece remains fully functional as a workspace. This desk is well-suited for a home office or study, particularly within interiors that favour mid-century modern or rustic aesthetics. It pairs effectively with other wooden furniture and natural materials, serving as a functional and historically significant focal point.
