The present model was exhibited at the 'Copenhagen Cabinetmakers’ Guild', Charlottenborg, Copenhagen, 15 September-2 October 1938, entrance hall and at 'Danish Art Treasures', Victoria & Albert Museum, London, 28 October 1948-2 January 1949.

The architect Mogens Koch designed the present model desk for the living room of the Danish textile artist and politician Gertie Wandel (1894–1988). Wandel was a central figure in the establishment of the Håndarbejdets Fremme (Danish Handcraft Guild) in 1928 and remained involved in the organisation until her retirement in 1978.

Phillips wishes to thank Lasse Hyldgaard Andersen for his assistance cataloguing the present lot.
