Gerard Philipe Writing Desk

The Gerard Philipe Writing Desk was one of the first “slatted” models, created by Jules Wabbes at the beginning of the 1950s.

This single user office desk or “bureau de compartements” was named after the famous French actor Gérard Philipe, one of Wabbes’ first clients. Wabbes spent a lot of time in the world of theatre and was a member of the comedy troupe “Comédiens Routiers” during the war. This writing desk – also known as Jules Wabbes Desk Secretaire – exhibited at the 1957 Milan Triennial, won the Silver Medal.

Ideal for home office working and studying, Gerard Philipe Writing Desk features cast aluminium legs. Table top American cherry wood varnished or multiply black.
