Origami Desk

Folded like its namesake, this angular oak desk carries a 1960s sensibility without a trace of nostalgia-for-its-own-sake.

The Origami Desk from Ethnicraft is built from solid oak sourced from responsibly managed forests in France, finished with a natural hardwax oil that lets the grain breathe. Five integrated drawers in black or cream keep a home office organized, and the piece is PFAS-free and compliant with REACH SVHC, California Prop 65, CARB Phase 2, and TSCA Title VI standards.

Materials

Solid French oak with a hardwax oil finish; drawer fronts in black or cream, finished with a durable varnish

Dimensions

53" W × 21.5" D × 37" H; 87.1 lb

Storage

Five integrated drawers

Made in

Vietnam, from French oak

Certifications

PFAS-free; REACH SVHC, Prop 65, CARB Phase 2, and TSCA Title VI compliant

Common Questions

Is the Origami Desk suitable for a small home office?
Yes — at 53 inches wide and just 21.5 inches deep, it fits along a wall or under a window, while the five drawers replace a separate storage unit.

What makes it a low-toxicity choice?
The desk is PFAS-free and meets REACH SVHC, California Prop 65, CARB Phase 2, and TSCA Title VI requirements, with a natural hardwax oil finish on the solid oak surfaces.

How do I maintain the oak top?
Dust with a dry cloth and wipe spills promptly along the grain. An occasional hardwax oil refresh restores the surface — one advantage of oil over lacquer.

Care Guide +

For regular dusting, use a dry cloth. For cleaning or in case of a spill, use a damp cloth and natural soap. Wipe in the direction of the grain. Do not use soap containing detergent or other chemicals. Dry with a soft clean cloth to prevent spotting.

We always recommend protecting surfaces with coasters, mousepads or placemats, as extreme and repetitive daily use or heat can damage the finish.
