Art Deco Dressing Table, Mahogany Wood, 1930 – France Exquisite Art Deco dressing table made around 1930 in mahogany wood. With elegant shapes, this dressing table is configured in two different parts, the furniture itself and the completely circular mirror. Its design is asymmetrical, playing with the sinuosity of the profiles, as well as with space, with its incomings and outgoings, and with light, creating magnificent shadows. On the left it presents three registers with circular bronze handles. Next to it, in a very innovative way, a door is created that goes unnoticed, with a very curved surface, which has a lock and key. Inside, veneered with lemongrass wood in its characteristic yellowish color. This entire part, both the drawers and the door, has a glass top. To the right, under the mirror, two small shelves. The entire piece of furniture is raised above the floor thanks to a curved base. Structure made of solid wood veneered with mahogany wood, with its characteristic tiger veins and reddish color. Highly glossy lacquer that enhances the sumptuousness of the furniture. If you look at these characteristics (high quality materials, shiny lacquer and sinuous profile) you will find similarities with Jules Leleu's designs. It is a highly decorative and individually functional piece, which plays with space. About the Art Deco style… Art Deco, short for the French term Arts Décoratifs, and sometimes simply called Déco, is a style of visual arts, architecture and product design, which first appeared in France in the 1910s (just before World War I) and flourished especially in the United States, but also in Europe, during the 1920s and 1930s. Art Deco combined modern styles with fine craftsmanship and rich materials. During its heyday, it represented luxury, glamour, exuberance and faith in social and technological progress. From its beginnings, Art Deco was influenced by the bold geometric forms of Cubism and the Vienna Secession; the bright colors of Fauvism and Russian ballets; the updated craftsmanship of furniture from the periods of Louis XVI and Louis Philippe I; and the exotic styles of China, Japan, India, Persia, ancient Egypt, and Mayan art. It featured rare and expensive materials, such as ebony and ivory, and exquisite craftsmanship. The Empire State Building, the Chrysler Building, and other New York City skyscrapers built during the 1920s and 1930s are monuments to the style. Overall dimensions: 159 x 157 x 39 cm.
