Please help us to decipher the name of the designer stamped on this midcentury wall desk

This piece has hung on the wall of a mid-century modern apartment since at least the early 1960's. We are having difficulty making out the name or words beneath the NM stamp. We can read that it was manufactured by the Gunnar Schwartz Company. It appears to say: Næstved Morelf??????

You can leave an optional "tip" with Mahalo's virtual currency, Mahalo Dollars. If you are asking a difficult question that might require some research, or if you'd like a wide variety of feedback, a higher tip often leads to more answers to your question.

My guess is: Næstved Møbelfabrik. It seems to be a designer/producer of wooden furniture from Denmark.

The picture below is from an auction site, showing the Næstved Møbelfabrik logo stamped on something that was for sale - it looks a lot like yours (and it's just as difficult to read).

The "A/S" at the end seems to be the equivalent of "Co." or "Ltd." or something similar - there are many Danish furniture manufacturers that use the same letters at the end of their names.

Næstved is a city in Denmark. You have the name of the manufacturer so my educated guess is that Morelf was the furniture maker of this piece.

Hope that helps some.
