Tecno T98 Executive Desk by Osvaldo Borsani, Italy 1960s

Authentic Italian executive desk attributed to the Tecno T98 production designed by Osvaldo Borsani during the 1960s. An important mid-century modern executive piece combining monumental proportions, refined materials and the architectural rigor characteristic of Italian modernist design. The desk features a large walnut veneered top with exceptional grain pattern, supported by brushed steel legs with sculptural star-shaped bases typical of Tecno production from the period. The central writing surface retains its original tan leather insert, naturally aged over decades of professional use and showing a rich authentic patina. Three integrated drawers are concealed beneath the top, preserving the desk’s clean horizontal profile while offering functional storage. Its exceptional dimensions and minimalist architectural structure make the piece particularly suitable for executive offices, galleries, architectural interiors, design studios or important residential projects. Comparable examples of this model have appeared in international design auctions and specialist literature dedicated to Italian modern design and Tecno production. The structure has been professionally disassembled for safer transport and easier international shipping. Steel legs are removable and shipped separately. Visible signs of age, wear and patina are consistent with the authenticity and vintage character of the piece. Details: Italy, circa 1960s. Attributed to Osvaldo Borsani for Tecno.
