Art Deco Cubist Skyscraper Style Black Lacquer Settee in the Manner of Ruhlmann

About the Item

This exquisitely designed and fabricated Art Deco Cubist Skyscraper Style Settee in Black Lacquer W/Holly Hunt Upholstery in the Manner of Ruhlmann originates from France, Circa 1930. The piece features a beautifully proportioned geometric composition of sleek angles within the framework rendered in black lacquer, creating lovely curvatures that interact cohesively within the upholstered elements of the Settee. The end of each armrest is accented with skyscraper styled cubist detailing, a subtle element with a significant impact on the beauty and conceptual strength of the piece. The top element of the back of the settee has lovely hand-carved naturalist detailing, creating a thoughtful design contrast between the rectilinear and geometric elements. The upholstery is a beautiful striated silver Holly Hunt fabric, with lines that gracefully follow the directionality of the chairs adding material elegance and sumptuous textural detailing throughout. Made in the manner of Rhulmann, an early French Art Deco pioneer with unique designs utilizing both geometry, stunning materials, and carefully rendered motifs. A stunning pair, this Settee is sure to draw the appreciation of those with a love of unique Art Deco design and the highest quality French Furniture. This will style brilliantly in a wide array of spaces and settings, from Art Deco to Mid-Century Modernist and Contemporary Interiors. In Mint Restored Condition.
