FAQs

Art Deco furniture, prominent in the 1920s and 1930s, is characterised by sleek geometric shapes, streamlined forms, and the use of luxurious materials such as burr walnut, chrome, and exotic veneers.

Craftsmen typically used solid timber frames veneered with highly figured decorative woods like burr walnut, macassar ebony, or mahogany, often complemented by metal hardware and plate glass mirrors.

Authentic pieces feature period-correct construction methods, symmetrical grain matching in the veneers, distinctive curved or stepped silhouettes, and original hardware or mirror fixings.

Position the piece as a focal point against a neutral or darkly painted wall, pairing it with a minimalist stool and simple accessories to highlight the dramatic wood grain.

Dust regularly with a soft, dry cloth and apply a quality microcrystalline wax periodically to nourish the wood; avoid placing the item in direct sunlight or near heat sources to prevent veneer cracking.
