Art Deco Wall Lights and Sconces

ART DECO STYLE

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.” 

ORIGINS OF ART DECO FURNITURE DESIGN

CHARACTERISTICS OF ART DECO FURNITURE DESIGN

  • Bold geometric lines and forms, floral motifs
  • Use of expensive materials such as shagreen or marble as well as exotic woods such as mahogany, ebony and zebra wood
  • Metal accents, shimmering mirrored finishes
  • Embellishments made from exotic animal hides, inlays of mother-of-pearl or ivory

ART DECO FURNITURE DESIGNERS TO KNOW

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.

Sylva Bernt - Paire Exceptionnelle d'Appliques en Bronze Patiné (circa 1950)
Located in NEUILLY-SUR-SEINE, FR
Sylva Bernt - Paire Exceptionnelle d'Appliques en Bronze Patiné (circa 1950) Type : Paire d’appliques en bronze patiné Date de création : Vers 1950 Dimensions : H : 39 cm L : 36 cm Décor : Colombes en vol Marque du fondeur : "Bisceglia" Cette paire exceptionnelle d’appliques en bronze patiné, réalisée vers 1950, est décorée de colombes en vol, motif cher à Sylva Bernt, une artiste reconnue pour son inspiration antique et son travail sur les formes épurées et symboliques. Biographie de Sylva Bernt (1910-1995) Sylva Bernt est une sculptrice et designer italienne, née en 1910 à Gorizia, près de Trieste, et décédée en 1995. Artiste rare et reconnue, elle se distingue par ses créations et commandes publiques en Italie et en France, où elle s’installe vers 1950. En 1952, après avoir rencontré André Arbus chez le peintre Guido Cadorin à Venise, elle reçoit ses premières commandes françaises. À l’invitation du décorateur, elle participe à la construction du paquebot Bretagne, créant un grand autel en pierre pour la chapelle du navire. Cette collaboration marque le début d’une relation artistique étroite avec Arbus. Installée Avenue du Maine à Paris, elle devient praticienne d’Arbus, réalisant des éléments décoratifs intégrés à son mobilier. Ensemble, ils répondent à des commandes prestigieuses, tant publiques que privées : Décoration des paquebots transatlantiques Vietnam (1952) et Pasteur (1961) Décoration de la villa de Jean-Marie Terrin à Aix-en-Provence (1955), où elle réalise des panneaux monumentaux en pierre de Chassagne rose, inspirés de la mythologie antique, dans un style néo-assyrien. Son inspiration antique lui permet de livrer certaines des plus belles interprétations modernes des mythes gréco-romains. Sa parfaite connaissance de la statuaire antique se traduit dans des créations en marbre, calcaire, plomb, plâtre, terre et bronze. Parmi ses œuvres notables, on retrouve Le Centaure (1961), une étude en encre démontrant fluidité et spontanéité du trait. En 1955, elle conçoit une longue frise historique sur l’épopée viking, destinée au Grand Salon du Palais des Consuls de la Chambre de Commerce de Rouen. ------------ Sylva Bernt - Exceptional Pair of Patinated Bronze Sconces (circa 1950) Type: Pair of patinated bronze sconces Creation Date: Circa 1950 Dimensions: H: 39 cm W: 36 cm Decoration: Flying doves Founder’s Stamp: "Bisceglia" This exceptional pair of patinated bronze sconces, created around 1950, features flying doves, a motif emblematic of Sylva Bernt, an artist known for her antique inspiration and her mastery of simplified and symbolic forms. Biography of Sylva Bernt (1910-1995) Sylva Bernt was an Italian sculptor and designer, born in 1910 in Gorizia, near Trieste, and passed away in 1995. A rare yet recognized artist, she was renowned for her public commissions in Italy and France, where she settled around 1950. In 1952, after meeting André Arbus at painter Guido Cadorin’s studio in Venice, she received her first French commissions. At Arbus’ invitation, she contributed to the construction of the Bretagne ocean liner, creating a large stone altar for the ship’s chapel. This collaboration marked the beginning of a close artistic relationship with Arbus. Settling in Avenue du Maine, Paris, she became Arbus’ practitioner, creating decorative elements that he incorporated into his furniture designs. Together, they worked on prestigious projects, both public and private: Decoration of the ocean liners Vietnam (1952) and Pasteur (1961) Creation of monumental panels for Jean-Marie Terrin’s villa in Aix-en-Provence (1955), carved in pink Chassagne stone, inspired by ancient mythology in a neo-Assyrian style. Her classical inspiration led her to produce some of the most refined modern interpretations of Greco-Roman myths. With extensive knowledge of antique statuary, she mastered materials such as marble, limestone, lead, plaster, terracotta, and bronze. Among her key works, Le Centaure (1961) stands out, showcasing her fluid and spontaneous linework. In 1955, she designed a long historical frieze depicting the Viking epic...
