Chinese Art Deco White Sofa, circa 1920
About the Item
In the 1920s-30s, Shanghai, China was swept up in the Art Deco design movement. Design, architecture, art, fashion, and furniture were all influenced by this modern movement, permeating every part of life in the bustling, vibrant city. This stylized club sofa is a product of the time and exemplifies the qualities that make Art Deco so sought after: simple lines, striking colors, and bold geometric shapes that remain timeless, even after so many decades. Offering a comfortable seat for three, this ironwood sofa has been reupholstered in a neutral textured fabric that’s not only beautiful but high-performing as well.
