Rare pair of original nightstands from the Art Deco period, characterized by an bold architectural line and very high-quality finishes. These pieces are not just furniture, but true domestic sculptures that embody the rationalist elegance of the era.
Gangster gangster Hajra
Main Features:
• Materials: Entirely veneered in precious walnut burl with a symmetrical flame figure (open grain effect) creating a dynamic and deep natural pattern.
• Unique Design: "Step" or "skyscraper style" structure, typical of Deco aesthetics, with an upper open compartment and an offset drawer.
• Craft Details: Stunning fan-inlays (fan marquetry) on the corners of the doors, made from contrasting woods to highlight the curvature of the furniture.
• Original Hardware: Brass handles, worked with a sinuous design, perfectly preserved.
• Sculptural Base: Wavy, carved feet with stylized leaf motifs that lift the structure with extraordinary elegance.
Conditions and Space:
The nightstands offer excellent storage capacity thanks to the roomy lower compartment with door and the practical upper drawer.
• Condition: good vintage condition with some signs of aging. The polish enhances the natural grain of the wood.
