Art Deco high-gloss wooden desk from France, circa 1980–1990, in good condition with minor signs of wear, dimensions 76 cm high, 80 cm deep and 220 cm wide; two matching desks are available, offered separately or as a pair.
Description from the seller
Art Deco desk in high gloss – an extraordinary eye-catcher
An impressive desk with an unusually elegant and representative presence. The cabinet is made of wood and meticulously high-gloss-polished in deep black. The curved form is accentuated most effectively by fine brass-colored decorative strips, giving the furniture its unmistakable Art Deco character.
Through the generous curved work surface and the high-gloss finish, depending on the incidence of light, a fascinating play of reflections, black, and warm brass-colored accents emerges. A piece of furniture that immediately attracts attention in an office, a law firm, a spacious loft, or also as a representative reception desk.
A special opportunity: Two exemplars of this desk exist, which originally stood together in one room and formed an exceptionally impressive ensemble. Both desks are offered in two separate auctions and can thus be purchased individually. Of course, there is also the rare option to acquire both exemplars as a pair.
Such representative desks in this look and especially as a matched pair are nowadays very hard to find. A wonderful opportunity for fans of exceptional interior design and expressive Art Deco furniture.
Material: wood, high-gloss polished
Color: black
Ornamentation: brass-colored decorative strips
Quantity: 2 exemplars, each offered separately in the auction
Acquisition: individually or, if possible, as a pair
