Design
Drawn as one line
The proportions come first. Everything else is subtraction until only the structure is left.
- Single-piece frame, no visible fixings
- Sized to the standard desk depth
- Cable routing kept out of sight
Materials
Materials that age well
Chosen for how they look after five years, not five minutes.
- Solid hardwood, not veneer over board
- Hand-finished edges
- Felt base, no marking
In use
Built for the desk you already have
It should disappear into the room and leave the surface clearer than it found it.
Specifications
Everything measurable, in one place.
About this piece
800 × 400 mm cork-leather desk pad. 2 mm.
Warm underhand.
A cork-leather surface does something a plain hard desk cannot: it takes the chill off, and gives very slightly under the wrist. Two millimetres is enough to feel and not enough to notice.
Quiet.
A soft-faced pad absorbs the click and the keyboard chatter that a bare desk throws straight back at you.
Three neutrals.
Black, brown and light grey, in the 800 × 400 mm size — the standard footprint for a full-size keyboard with a mouse beside it. We left the other eight colours the supplier offers on the table, because nothing else belongs on a desk.
Why it is built this way
- Cork-leather face — warmer and quieter than a bare desk
- 800 × 400 mm standard desk footprint
- 2 mm: felt, not bulky
- Three neutral colourways only

What we do not publish
Our supplier's own data describes this surface inconsistently — the model name says cork leather, one field says leather, another mentions a rubber backing. We list it as cork leather because that is what the product is sold as, and we are telling you about the inconsistency rather than picking the most flattering reading. We also do not publish a backing material, an edge treatment, or a water-resistance claim, because none of them is established.
Questions
How do I clean it?
A barely damp cloth. Do not soak it and do not use solvent.
Will it curl at the edges?
It ships rolled and relaxes flat within about a day. Lay it face-up under a book overnight to speed that up.
Is it reversible?
We do not claim it is. The supplier does not establish a finished reverse face, so treat it as single-sided.
