MODERN, ELEGANT, & DURABLE

The Mid-Century Modern Desk is part of our Mid-Century Modern Collection — all handcrafted in our Los Angeles woodshop. Made with responsibly sourced, solid walnut or maple wood, the desk features two or three plywood drawers with angled fronts — ideal for storing your computer, phone, pens, and other accessories. Like the matching Mid-Century Modern Bed Frame, Dresser, and Nightstand, mid-century design inspires this stunning and functional piece, with clean, simple lines, soft-close drawers, angular legs, and a classic charm that will elevate any room.

SOLID WOOD

We craft our Mid-Century Modern Desk with solid walnut or maple wood. Both are resilient and long-lasting hardwoods — an ideal choice for furniture. And the woods' beautiful, natural patinas add to their exceptional appeal. We believe in letting the rich character of the wood speak for itself. This way, every piece is original, with slight variations that add to their charm.

CRAFTSMANSHIP

Our Mid-Century Modern Desk is individually crafted using the highest quality construction techniques to ensure longevity and durability. The angular legs provide sturdy, reliable support, and soft-close plywood drawers minimize stress on your desk, prolonging its life and ensuring it lasts for generations. Available in walnut or maple wood and two- or three-drawer options, choose the design that fits your space and preference.

Shipping and Delivery

Our Mid-Century Modern Desk is handmade in our woodshop in Los Angeles. The 48" desk will ship via FedEx and the 60" desk will ship via Doorstep Delivery. In-home delivery and setup are optional within the continental United States only. Furniture is not currently available to ship to Alaska and Hawaii. In-home setup does not include hauling away your old furniture. Our shipping provider will contact you directly to schedule your delivery. At this time, furniture and mattress and/or bedding orders can not be coordinated to arrive at the same time.

Solid Wood Construction

We construct our dresser with solid walnut or maple wood. Walnut and maple are more sustainable timber choices because of their abundance and shorter lifespan. Both are durable, long-lasting hardwoods — an ideal choice for furniture. Note: The walnut build showcases the natural depth and unique grain patterns of the timber. Walnut is known for its complex colors, durability, and strength, but does feature some variation in wood tone and color. Not sure what finish you want? Order a wood sample.

Built to Last & Easy to Maintain

Your furniture arrives beautifully finished. To help you care for it over time, we’ll send you a complimentary code after purchase for a free Walrus Oil® Furniture Maker Master Kit—perfect for conditioning the wood or refreshing areas that show scratches or wear.

Your Avocado furniture is crafted from real, solid wood — built to last for years, even generations. Unlike composite or veneer furniture, which is not made to endure, our solid wood naturally evolves over time, developing a rich character from the life lived around it.

We finish each piece with Walrus Oil® from their Furniture Maker Master Kit — a trusted, American-made wood finish created with natural, food-safe ingredients, such as polymerizing oils and plant waxes. Free from harmful chemicals, VOCs, and synthetics, it aligns perfectly with Avocado’s mission to create safe, sustainable, and healthy home products.

Most aging in wood furniture happens within the first year. We want you to live comfortably with your furniture — don’t worry about small scuffs or marks. They’re part of its charm and story. Walrus Oil® products are not a burden, but an invitation — a way to stay in harmony with your furniture. With a touch of care, your piece can be refreshed and restored to maintain its natural beauty and integrity for decades to come.

Safe, Odorless Glues

Our assembly utilizes Titebond® wood glues, which are safe and produce no harmful fumes. They meet the requirements of ASTM D4236 for safe use with arts and crafts and have both been approved for indirect food contact.

California Residents

We operate our own woodshop — in a facility completely separate from our mattress factory, in Los Angeles — which produces wood dust. Read California's required Proposition 65 warning for wood dust.

Return Policy and Warranty

Wood bed frames, upholstered headboards, chairs, and furniture can be returned within 30 days. A restocking fee applies to all returnable furniture, but it is waived for exchanges of equal or greater value. Shipping fees and optional in-home setup services are non-refundable. Please review our return policy. Our 10-year product warranty covers defects in workmanship. Please note that natural wood products may display blemishes, knots, or other imperfections as a testament to their age, unique character, and distinctive beauty.
