Executive desks from a Polish office furniture manufacturer
Deerhorn is an office furniture manufacturer, and in this category we have gathered the desks that stand in the offices of CEOs, directors, law firm partners and business owners: straight and corner, 160, 180 and 200 cm long, with a pedestal for documents and a screen under the top. The top is solid seasoned oak, the frame powder-coated steel. Since 2019 Deerhorn furniture has reached more than 30,000 customers, in 2025 alone more than 7,000 companies. Every desk has a 25-year warranty, arrives fully assembled and is delivered within 5 working days.
An executive desk differs from an open-space desk in that it is seen from both sides. The visitor sits opposite, so the front of the desk matters, not just the top. That is why the desks in this category have a modesty panel, i.e. a screen that hides legs and cables, and a pedestal that keeps documents out of visitors’ sight.
How to choose a desk for a CEO’s or director’s office?
Start with what will lie on the top and who will sit on the other side. For working with documents and short meetings at the desk, choose a 180×80 or 200×80 cm top: an 80 cm depth leaves room for a monitor and the person opposite. For an office of up to 15 m², 160×70 cm with a pedestal, which extends the desk to 194 cm, is enough. The desk is 75 cm high, leaving 69–71 cm under the top for a chair with armrests.
Straight or corner. A straight desk is placed in the middle of the office or by the window. A corner desk gives you a second top for a monitor or documents and comes in left- and right-hand versions, so you can fit it to the wall with the window or the door.
Pedestal and drawers. The pedestal from the Loft office plus collection measures 140×50×60 cm and has three soft-close drawers, while the Future Active pedestal offers additional space for a computer, bag or printer. A freestanding under-desk pedestal can be bought later for any model.
Colour. Natural oak on a black frame is the most common choice for a loft-style office. You can furnish a dark office with a top in ebony or cuban cigaro, a light one – with a white desk with an oak top. If wood is not needed, some models have a top made of Polish-made furniture board, for example in ivory.
Desk for a law firm, doctor’s office and company office
A desk in a law firm works with documents, so the most common choice is a 180 or 200 cm model with a pedestal and modesty panel, with a document sideboard or an office cabinet from the same collection next to it. We have described the full set of furniture on the furniture for legal, barristers’ and notary offices page.
In a doctor’s office the desk stands between the doctor and the patient, so a 160×70 cm top with a modesty panel and a pedestal for records works well. Sets with cabinets and shelving units are on the doctor’s office furniture page. You can furnish the office of a business owner working from home in the same way – see home office furniture.
Office set: desk, sideboard, shelving unit and chair from one collection
Every executive desk has counterparts in sideboards, shelving units, cabinets and conference tables from the same collection, with the same oak and the same steel colour. The most common office set is a desk, an office shelving unit, a document sideboard and an office chair. Larger offices add a conference table with a wooden top for meetings with clients.
Deerhorn executive desk collections
Loft office plus are desks with drawers and a pedestal on a simple frame, Loft office slim has a lighter silhouette for smaller offices. Modern office combines an oak top with a screen under the top, and Active has an undercut top and angled legs. The Prestige Office collection was designed with management board offices in mind, and Corporate for companies where the private office should look like the rest of the business.

Frequently asked questions about executive desks
What desk for a CEO’s office?
Large and with a closed front: a 180×80 or 200×80 cm solid oak top, a modesty panel on the visitor’s side and a pedestal for documents. In a dark office an ebony or cuban cigaro top on a black frame looks good, in a light one natural oak on white. If the CEO receives guests at the desk, choose an 80 cm depth.
What size executive desk should I choose?
160×70 cm for an office of up to 15 m² and computer work, 180×70 or 180×80 cm when documents lie on the top, 200×80 cm for an office with room for meetings at the desk. The pedestal adds 34 cm to the length. We quote other sizes individually.
Can an executive desk be a corner desk?
Yes. Corner executive desks have a second top for a monitor or documents and come in left- and right-hand versions. The model from the Loft office plus collection combines a corner top with a three-drawer pedestal.
How does an executive desk differ from an ordinary office desk?
In size and front. An executive desk is longer, has a modesty panel hiding legs and cables and a pedestal for documents, because it is seen from both sides and a guest sits at it. The top, frame and warranty are the same as for other Deerhorn desks.
What are Deerhorn executive desks made of?
A top of solid, seasoned and oiled oak 38 mm thick, a frame of powder-coated steel. The pedestal fronts are furniture board in the frame colour, the handles oak. Some models have a top made of Polish-made furniture board for companies that do not need wood.
Does an executive desk arrive assembled?
Yes, we deliver the desks in this category fully assembled, ready to put in place, within 5 working days. As standard, the courier leaves the pallet outside the building; carrying in and unpacking can be ordered at extra cost.
