Kendal Bayur Wood Desk with Rattan Top and Glass Surface

Solid Bayur wood frame, hand-woven rattan desktop, tempered glass surface — the Kendal Desk where natural craftsmanship meets a genuinely functional workspace.

Most desks make a binary choice between natural warmth and practical surface — the Kendal makes no such compromise. The hand-woven rattan desktop panel brings the organic texture and visual warmth of natural fibre to the work surface, while the tempered glass top above it provides the smooth, durable writing and laptop surface that a rattan panel alone cannot. The result is a desk that reveals the warmth and texture of the rattan beneath the glass — always present and always beautiful — while offering the practical qualities of a proper work surface above it. The solid Bayur wood frame brings the natural grain and quiet character of the Kendal collection to the desk format.

What sets it apart

The detail that makes it different

The layered material construction is the Kendal Desk's most considered quality — rattan beneath glass is a pairing that most desks would never attempt, and it works here because the glass is transparent enough to allow the woven texture of the rattan to read through it, creating a work surface that is visually interesting in a way that plain wood or laminate alternatives cannot be. The Bayur wood frame brings its characteristic fine grain and warm natural tone to the structure, consistent with the Kendal Chest in material quality and feel. At 100cm wide and 45cm deep the desk is a proper full-size workspace rather than a compact writing table.
