About Double Ten Desk

Double Ten is a desk designed for small homes and frequent moves. The desk is made mainly of bamboo or beech wood, combined with metal, plastic and leather. The structure uses traditional mortise and tenon joints together with the lever principle, so no metal connectors are needed. Assembly is done by hand in three or four steps, and the desk can be taken apart again. Leather pockets can be added to the legs to hold books or tablet computers. The flat package reduces transport costs and suits online sales.
