FAQs

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

Pieces from this era typically feature solid timber frames finished with high-grade wood veneers, curved plywood elements, and often incorporate inset mirrors alongside metal or plastic detailing.

Authenticity is usually verified through construction methods such as dovetail joints in drawers, makers marks or stamps, period-appropriate hardware, and the characteristic symmetry paired with asymmetrical modernist curves.

Pairing the piece with minimalist lighting and contemporary seating creates a striking juxtaposition that highlights the craftsmanship of the vintage wood without overwhelming the room.

Maintain the finish by dusting with a dry microfibre cloth, avoiding direct sunlight to prevent fading, and treating the timber periodically with appropriate specialist wax or polish.
