Deutsche Werkstatten Hellerau - Display cabinet - Wood - Art Deco

Monumental display cabinet in Art Deco / Primo Modernismo – Deutsche Werkstätten Hellerau, Munich, late 1920s – early 1930s

Exceptional German-made display cabinet, produced by the renowned manufactory Deutsche Werkstätten Hellerau – München, between the late 1920s and the early 1930s. The piece, of monumental proportions, is entirely veneered in fine Macassar ebony, with a geometrical grain arranged in a herringbone pattern on the base surface, giving a visually refined effect. The upper section features four wide glass doors with adjustable interior shelves, while the lower section consists of a sideboard with dark-lacquered drawers and side compartments, fitted with original metal handles of elegant sinuous design. Inside the door is the original circular metal plate stamped “Deutsche Werkstätten A.G. Hellerau – München”, an authentic mark of quality and provenance from one of the most important workshops of the Deutscher Werkbund.

Condition: sturdy, intact structure, with a wonderful antique patina and original glazing. Displays slight signs of wear consistent with age. The locks do not operate with a key, but are mechanically functional.

Notes for transport: due to its size and considerable weight, in-person pickup is advised.
