FAQs

Art Deco design emerged in France during the 1920s, characterised by sleek geometric shapes, stylised motifs, and a combination of traditional craftsmanship with industrial materials.

Pieces from this period frequently utilised exotic hardwoods such as mahogany, walnut, and ebony, accented with polished metals including brass, copper, and bronze.

Authenticity is determined by examining construction methods, dovetail joints, material patination, maker marks, and adherence to the design principles and proportions typical of the 1920s and 1930s.

This type of functional object can be placed beside a desk or within a study to introduce textural contrast, tactile warmth, and historical interest to a minimalist or modern room.

Surfaces should be dusted regularly with a soft cloth and treated periodically with appropriate wax for wood and non-abrasive cleaners for metal to maintain the protective finish without damaging the patina.
