Peter Løvig Nielsen 'Boomerang' Writing Desk

The Peter Løvig Nielsen “Boomerang” Writing Desk is a sculptural statement, defined by its unmistakable asymmetrical top. The desk’s signature boomerang-shaped surface extends gracefully to one side, creating a dynamic silhouette that feels both architectural and organic. A subtly raised, sculpted gallery edge follows the perimeter of the top, gently curving upward at the back corner.

Crafted entirely in richly toned teak, the desk showcases beautifully figured wood throughout, with a darker contrasting edge band that outlines the top. The case floats lightly on tapered legs, joined by angled stretchers that meet a brass-capped crossbar beneath. The angled supports echo the forward motion of the boomerang top, reinforcing the desk’s sense of movement and balance.

On the front, the composition is clean and asymmetrical. A bank of three drawers sits to one side, each drawer front gently curved and carved with subtle integrated pulls that follow the natural sweep of the wood. The top drawer features a discreet keyhole.

At the rear, a drop-front cabinet opens to reveal a thoughtfully finished interior, complete with a petite shelf and a mirrored back panel etched with a repeating clover motif. It is accompanied by an open shelf, spanning the length of the kneehole, offering generous storage while preserving the airy, floating appearance of the piece.
