FAQs

Art Deco furniture, emerging in the 1920s and 1930s, is characterised by sleek geometric shapes, streamlined forms, and the use of luxurious materials such as figured veneers and metals.

These pieces typically utilized a solid wood carcass overlaid with high-end decorative wood veneers, such as walnut or mahogany, often complemented by brass or chrome hardware.

Authentic pieces feature period-correct construction methods, such as hand-cut dovetail joints in internal drawers, original hardware, and natural ageing within the wood veneers.

An Art Deco wardrobe serves as a focal statement piece and pairs well with minimalist surroundings, neutral wall colours, and metallic accents that echo the eras design ethos.

Maintain wood veneers by keeping them out of direct sunlight, avoiding excessive humidity fluctuations, and periodically applying a microcrystalline wax to nourish the surface.
