FAQs

Art Deco emerged in the 1920s, favouring sleek geometric forms, streamlined shapes, and luxurious materials such as exotic veneers and polished metals.

These desks typically utilised a solid wood core or secondary timbers like pine, finished with high-end decorative veneers such as walnut, mahogany, or burr elm, alongside chrome or brass hardware.

Authentic pieces often exhibit period construction methods, including hand-cut dovetail joints in the drawers, traditional shellac or French polish finishes, and genuine age-related wear to the veneer and hardware.

An Art Deco desk serves as a striking focal point in a modern home office or living space, pairing well with minimalist seating and neutral backdrops that allow the distinctive wood grain to stand out.

Maintain walnut furniture by keeping it out of direct sunlight to prevent veneer fading, dusting regularly with a soft dry cloth, and occasionally applying microcrystalline wax to protect the polished surface.
