Description

Here is a wonderful Chrome plated fireside companion box in all its art deco glory! The metal box is finished in planished chrome, with the application of a chrome front motif, and two heavy duty ring handles to the sides.

Sitting on four chrome ball feet, the box stands 31cm high, 32cm wide and is 29cm deep. It's in good condition, but does have the surface wear commensurate with its age, so please check the photographs to make sure that it's for you, but I hope as the photos show, it really is a very handsome piece of pure art deco joy.

Please don't hesitate to contact me if I can provide any further information, or photographs.

I offer free postage throughout the UK, and am very happy to help with quotes for shipping abroad.

FAQs

Art Deco design typically features geometric shapes, stylised motifs, clean lines, and a focus on modern industrial metals like chromium and brass, reflecting the interwar periods aesthetic.

While traditional scuttles used brass, copper, and cast iron, the 1920s and 1930s introduced sheet metal finished with chromium plating, often featuring hammered or planished surface textures.

Authentic pieces often exhibit period-specific manufacturing techniques such as hand-hammered or planished finishes, distinct geometric handles, and heavier gauge metals compared to modern reproductions.

Such pieces serve as functional sculpture beside a fireplace, contrasting effectively against rustic brick hearths or complementing minimalist stone surrounds with their reflective metallic sheen.

Preservation requires gentle dusting with a soft microfibre cloth and avoiding abrasive cleaners that can strip or scratch the delicate chromium plating.
