The Lanna Collection, offered in a deep espresso or bleached oak, is a very modern desk. The rich straight-grain oak – rather than cathedral grain – lends a more modern and refined aesthetic. The white variant is a bleached, cerused oak, and the espresso finish is a very dark, almost black color that really highlights the bronze accents. The custom bronze elements, like the tassel pulls that are reminiscent of medieval bronze combined with antique French tassels known as Passementerie, make the desk more subtle and masculine. Our hardware is custom-cast and exclusive to Villa & House. Notice the inset metal reveal, a Villa & House signature design element, set into the groove of the desk’s top, skimming the perimeter of your writing surface. The overall shape of the Lanna is architectural, light, sculptural and modern. The workspace is quite large – like an augmented writing desk, providing a significant surface with ample space for a monitor, laptop, or many documents. The result is subtle glamour, putting high-end materials on display, but not in a flashy way. Reminiscent of a historical, archival piece of furniture, the modern oak Lanna desk will undoubtedly be an heirloom item.
The legs of the Lanna desk are not conical – they are tapered. Each leg starts as a broad board and is sanded down by hand to create the intended, circular shape. This attention to detail is what sets Villa & House apart.
