Hey everyone,I picked up this Teak and Beech Drop Leaf Desk by GEMLA (made in Sweden) and after a fairly decent search, cannot figure out who designed it.I was hoping that the coloured feet, sculpted plywood handles and adjustable drawer would help me in my search...but nothing has popped up by Gemla.ALSO - note the interesting and original "instructions" with the makers markings that are still tacked to the underside of the desk top.Can anyone help?

I've recently discovered that Poul M Volther did quite a bit of designing for Gemla Dio. Not sure if anyone is overly familiar with his work?
Also I've read that Gemla Dio specialized in bentwood designs...which would explain the unique handles on the drawer. I've attached another pic for a closer look. Look familiar?
Thanks.
