The Nocturne Rise desk is built from a rare single slab of mappa burl, selected for its wild grain and striking figure. Unlike most live-edge pieces, the natural edges are preserved on the short sides — a testament to the sheer size of the original tree. This unique orientation creates a clean, straight front and back, ideal for both standalone placement or positioning against a wall.
Its visual appeal is further elevated by a hand-applied gradient finish — a deep black dye fading from the edges into the glowing center — designed to enhance the wood’s natural chatoyance and depth.
This desk is mounted on a premium sit-stand base with programmable height presets. With a satin black finish and a wide adjustable range (22″–46″), the base ensures ergonomic flexibility without compromising visual balance. The desk arrives fully assembled in a protective crate — ready to use straight out of the box.

The fact that this desk arrived fully built was a dream. Plugged it in, set my height presets, and was working within 15 minutes.

It’s so much more than a desk — it’s the focal point of my office now. The straight front is perfect for monitors, and the edge detail adds a soft touch.

This desk completely changed my workspace. The wood grain is wild, and the fading dye gives it so much dimension. Bonus: it came fully assembled!

The grain, the dye, the finish — it all adds up to something that feels custom and timeless. The sit-stand base is super smooth and quiet.

A real work of art and technology combined. I love the programmable height presets. Only knocked off a star because I wish the cable management was built-in.

Mappa burl is such a rare wood, and this desk shows exactly why. The way light dances on the surface is magical. Love the black-on-black base too.
Alex Monroe –
The gradient finish is just unreal — it fades so naturally from black to gold. I’ve never seen a desk that looks this alive under light.

One of the most elegant pieces I’ve seen for a home office. The live edge on the short sides is a brilliant touch. Be aware: it’s not cheap, but it’s worth it.

Absolutely beautiful slab and top-tier construction. I do wish it had an integrated drawer or tray for small items. But design-wise, it’s flawless.
