Emerging in France during the 1910s and reaching peak global popularity in the 1920s and 1930s, Art Deco embraced modernity, sleek geometric shapes, and luxurious materials like exotic veneers and chrome.

These pieces typically utilised solid pine or oak carcases overlaid with decorative veneer timbers such as walnut, mahogany, or burr maple, often featuring hand-dovetailed joints and brass or cast hardware.

Authentic pieces exhibit period-accurate construction techniques, genuine timber veneers with natural ageing and oxidisation, and original hardware rather than modern fixings.

Such a statement piece works well as a focal point in a contemporary bedroom or hallway, contrasting against neutral walls to highlight the rich grain patterns and geometric silhouette.

Maintain the timber by keeping it away from direct sunlight and heat sources, dusting regularly with a soft dry cloth, and occasionally applying a specialist beeswax to nourish the wood.
