I was told this desk I recently purchased was designed by Kai Kristiansen but I cannot find another example anywhere. Any help would be appreciated.

You were told that because of the shape of the handles. By the same logic the Toyota Marrix was designed by Kiichiro Toyoda, and likewise I am writing in Phoenician.

@leif ericson while I do appreciate the attempt I was looking for information of value not of the obvious. I guess I should of added more info myself. The locks are all brass. Also every screw and bolt I can find on the thing are flat head. The top of the desk is solid teak and not veneer. Any help identifying it would be greatly appreciated.

As always more information is extremely helpful. More photos would be best.

I would suggest a sharp close up of a leg, as the color suggests that it could be Afrormosia, not teak. And knowing that would lead to certain suggestions about the desk.

Photos of the sides of the drawers would be helpful. Likewise the underside of the desk. And the bottom of a drawer. The mounting hardware that attaches the legs, too.

Although your photos are not ideal for seeing the top surface, the one that shows the most strongly, strongly suggests veneer. So more photos of the top could be very, very helpful. There are actually extremely few desk designs that were executed in solid teak.
