Art Deco furniture is characterized by its celebration of modern life. More than its emphasis on natural wood grains and focus on traditional craftsmanship, vintage Art Deco dining chairs, tables, desks, cabinets and other furniture — which typically refers to pieces produced during the 1920s and 1930s — is an ode to the glamour of the “Roaring Twenties.”

VINTAGE ART DECO FURNITURE ON 1STDIBS
Few design styles are as universally recognized and appreciated as Art Deco. The term alone conjures visions of the Roaring Twenties, Machine Age metropolises, vast ocean liners, sleek typography and Prohibition-era hedonism. The iconic movement made an indelible mark on all fields of design throughout the 1920s and ’30s, celebrating society’s growing industrialization with refined elegance and stunning craftsmanship.
Widely known designers associated with the Art Deco style include Émile-Jacques Ruhlmann, Eileen Gray, Maurice Dufrêne, Paul Follot and Jules Leleu.
The term Art Deco derives from the name of a large decorative arts exhibition held in Paris in 1925. “Art Deco design” is often used broadly, to describe the work of creators in associated or ancillary styles. This is particularly true of American Art Deco, which is also called Streamline Moderne or Machine Age design. (Streamline Moderne, sometimes known as Art Moderne, was a phenomenon largely of the 1930s, post–Art Nouveau.)
Art Deco textile designers employed dazzling floral motifs and vivid colors, and while Art Deco furniture makers respected the dark woods and modern metals with which they worked, they frequently incorporated decorative embellishments such as exotic animal hides as well as veneers in their seating, case pieces, living room sets and bedroom furniture.
From mother-of-pearl inlaid vitrines to chrome aviator chairs, bold and inventive works in the Art Deco style include chaise longues (also known as chaise lounges) and curved armchairs. Today, the style is still favored by interior designers looking to infuse a home with an air of luxury and sophistication.
The vintage Art Deco furniture for sale on 1stDibs includes dressers, coffee tables, decorative objects and more.

Vintage Italian Carved Bardiglio Marble Art Deco Cigarette Box or Jewelry Casket
Located in Oklahoma City, OK
Some decorative objects quietly sit in a room. Others command attention from across it. This exceptional vintage Italian marble box is one of those rare sculptural pieces that feels more like architecture than an accessory. Hand-carved from a striking block of heavily veined Bardiglio marble, its dramatic fluted lid creates a rhythm of light and shadow that recalls the bold geometry of Art Deco design while remaining perfectly at home in today's minimalist and organic interiors. Every surface showcases nature's artistry. Soft ivory clouds, smoky charcoal veining, and subtle hints of sage and blue-green mineralization create a composition that could never be duplicated. The sculptural ribbed lid flows seamlessly into deeply carved diagonal sides, giving the entire piece an architectural presence from every angle. Originally intended as a luxury cigarette or tobacco box, this piece easily transitions into a sophisticated jewelry casket, desk accessory, valet box, or decorative object. Whether displayed atop a stack of design books, on a dressing table, or styled in a library or office, it instantly elevates the space with timeless elegance. The substantial weight, beautifully matched marble patterning, and expertly hand-carved details speak to the quality of Italian lapidary craftsmanship during the mid-20th century. Although unsigned, the workmanship and design strongly suggest production by one of the skilled Italian marble workshops active during the 1950s–1970s. The sculptural quality is reminiscent of decorative stone objects produced in Carrara, Volterra, and other renowned Tuscan marble centers. While no maker can be definitively attributed, the design shares aesthetic similarities with luxury decorative objects retailed by firms such as Flli Mannelli, Oggetti, and other Italian stone ateliers of the period. Today, sculptural marble accessories have become increasingly sought after by collectors, interior designers, and stylists for their ability to add texture, permanence, and architectural interest to contemporary interiors. This is the kind of object that designers often describe as "the finishing piece"—small enough to move effortlessly throughout the home, yet substantial enough to anchor an entire vignette. Styling Ideas: This piece is incredibly versatile and can be used throughout the home. Store jewelry on a bedside table. Use as a luxury valet box for watches...
