This bird’s eye veneered desk presents the synthesis of elegance, functionality and refined design. The design of the storage areas, drawers, and lower and side sections of the desk correspond to the designs of the important architect and designer Jiří Kroha, who focused on Cubist, Functionalist and Machinist projects during the interwar period.
