Yes its 100% authentic, licensed design. No replicas, no compromises.
Finn Juhl, the master of Danish Modern, originally designed the iconic walnut Nyhavn Desk in 1945. With a sleek veneer walnut table top resting on black steel legs with feet finished in coordinating walnut, the Nyhavn Desk would lend a design edge to any workspace.
Finn Juhl (1912-1989) was the first Danish furniture designer to be recognized internationally. He studied architecture at the Royal Academy in Copenhagen with Danish architect Vilhelm Lauritzen, but as a furniture designer he was self-taught, a fact he always emphasized.
Juhl began designing furniture in the late 1930s, in the beginning mostly pieces intended for himself, but after setting up his own office in 1945 he soon became known for his unusual, expressive and sculptural pieces.
One of Finn Juhl's most well-known pieces is the Chieftains Chair. Designed in 1949, it is a fine example of Juhl's great idea of separating the sculpturally shaped seat and back from the wooden frame.
