Description
Named after the Greek goddess of beauty, the Afrodite desk by Carlo Ballabio offers a contemporary reimagination of the classic writing table. Its silhouette is crafted entirely from solid Canaletta walnut, available in natural, Moka, or Wengé stained finishes as well as all matt lacquered options from the Porada palette. The modular structure features a lateral element with three drawers, which can be placed on either side for full workspace flexibility, and subtle, precise lines that bring out the warmth and fine grain of the wood.
The desktop's customizable surface makes Afrodite exceptionally versatile: choose from wood, cuoietto leather (with signature topstitching), exquisite marbles, or acid-etched frosted glass to match any taste or setting—from refined home offices to elegant boudoirs or creative studios. The option to add a fixed, integrated mirror element is available for wood and leather tops, while a freestanding mirror can be used with any version, further extending Afrodite’s functional and decorative potential. Meticulous Italian craftsmanship ensures that every detail, from the clean integrated handles to the optional accessories, enhances both daily rituals and personal style.
