Description

For your consideration is this rather stylish set of modernist Art Deco Walnut boxes set on their own matching tray. Dating to the 1930's and French in origin this set may have been originally intended as a smokers set or perhaps even tea leaves, herbs or coffee. Either way they make a wonderful ornamental display in their own entity. An unusual and rare find and one we know admirers of this era will appreciate. Condition is very good and without damage. The chrome to the lids is a little dull and has mild surface scratches, this is only noticeable on close inspection and we believe not distracting. Please see images provided for better clarity of condition.

Height: 4.34 in (11 cm)Width: 12.8 in (32.5 cm)Depth: 8.67 in (22 cm)

Date of Manufacture

Art Deco World has dated this Art Deco Box Set to the 1930s.

FAQs

Art Deco design from the 1930s is characterised by geometric symmetry, streamlined shapes, and a luxurious combination of exotic woods and metals.

These sets typically incorporated exotic veneers like Macassar ebony, rosewood, or walnut, often paired with chrome, nickel, or silver-plated metal elements.

Authentic pieces usually feature period-specific construction techniques, high-grade wood veneers over solid carcases, genuine metal hardware, and occasionally French maker stamps or signatures.

Place the set on a coffee table, sideboard top, or office desk to add architectural lines, warm wood tones, and sophisticated modernist contrast to contemporary schemes.

Dust regularly with a soft, dry cloth and treat the wood periodically with microcrystalline wax. Avoid chemical cleaners and excess moisture to protect both the delicate veneer and metal finishes.
