This Disney animator's office set is truly remarkable, artistically functional and as rare pieces of furniture history they stand as iconic staples of Walt Disney Feature animation history. This particular desk was built for the second golden age of Disney animation in the late 1980's. Walt Disney animators did countless amounts of animation drawings and paintings on these particular desks. Bringing such classic characters and stories to life such as "Roger Rabbit", "The Little Mermaid", "Lion King", "Beauty" and "Beast", and many more. This specific animation desk style was commissioned exclusively by the Walt Disney Company and are based on the very original Kem Weber designs from the early 1930's. Kem Weber originally designed and built all the unique furniture for the Walt Disney animation studios. Even though these desks were built specifically for high-end classical traditional Disney animation, the desk can also be angled flat, to be used for a computer or drafting table as needed. These desk and accompanying furniture are literally works of art in their own right. The original Disney animation desk 55 x 72 x 27 in. comes with a solid wood scene stacker., In unrestored, fine studio used condition.
