Desks So Beautiful, They'll Turn Anyone Into A Workaholic.




The Tresserra Collection is a line of hand-crafted fine furnishings with showrooms in Barcelona and Paris, and includes everything from light fixtures to coffee tables. But what I really want to share with you are the desks, which are some of the most beautifully appointed hand crafted pieces in the world. Made with woods such as Sycamore, Maple, Cedar and Walnut, they have gun metal or silver-plated fittings, hardware and details, Italian leather and glass accents.

The craftsmanship is impeccable and the designs are simultaneously classic and modern. In a word, they are breathtaking. See for yourself.
