About the Item

Description: This exquisite Art Deco Brutalist credenza, crafted from solid oak in France during the 1940s, is a testament to the elegance and innovation of mid-20th-century design. The piece combines the boldness of Brutalism with the refined details characteristic of the Art Deco period, resulting in a sideboard that is both striking and sophisticated. Features: Design: This large credenza exemplifies the Art Deco Brutalist style with its strong geometric forms and meticulous craftsmanship. The credenza’s structure is robust and solid, yet the detailed design on the doors introduces a layer of refinement, creating a perfect balance between strength and elegance. Material: The credenza is constructed from high-quality solid oak, known for its durability and rich grain. The natural oak finish highlights the wood's beautiful texture, while the marquetry top adds an extra dimension of luxury and craftsmanship to the piece. Handcrafted Doors: The three storage compartments are concealed behind beautifully crafted doors, each featuring intricate carved designs. These designs depict a refined, nature-inspired motif, adding a touch of artistry and elegance to the otherwise bold structure. The craftsmanship is evident in the depth and precision of the carvings, which bring a sense of movement and life to the solid oak panels. Storage: Behind the elegant doors, the credenza offers ample storage space, making it as functional as it is beautiful. The three compartments provide versatile storage options for a variety of household items, from dining ware to personal collections. Marquetry Top: The top of the credenza is adorned with a finely executed marquetry, showcasing the craftsmanship and attention to detail that went into the piece. The marquetry adds a sophisticated contrast to the bold structure of the credenza, enhancing its overall aesthetic appeal. Brutalist Base: The credenza stands on a solid, architectural base that echoes the Brutalist design ethos. The base’s robust construction provides stability and contributes to the credenza’s commanding presence. Condition: This credenza is in excellent original condition, with minor wear consistent with its age and use. The oak wood has developed a beautiful patina over time, and the carved details and marquetry top are exceptionally well-preserved, further enhancing the piece's charm and authenticity. Styling Tips: Position this credenza in a dining room or living area where its elegant design and detailed craftsmanship can be fully appreciated. Pair it with other Art Deco or Brutalist pieces to create a cohesive and luxurious interior. Use the expansive top surface to display decorative objects, such as fine art, sculptural vases, or a pair of vintage table lamps, to enhance its visual impact. Consider incorporating complementary textiles, such as a rich area rug or elegant drapery, to soften the bold lines of the credenza and create a harmonious and inviting space. Conclusion: This elegant Art Deco Brutalist credenza in solid oak is a truly exceptional piece that embodies the grandeur and sophistication of 1940s French design. With its intricate door carvings, luxurious marquetry top, and robust construction, this credenza is a perfect addition to any luxury interior. Whether used as a functional storage solution or as a statement piece, it will bring both beauty and character to your home.

18th Century Bleached Walnut Italian Credenza, Buffet, Sideboard

Located in Carmine, TX

Walnut credenza handcrafted in Italy in the mid 1700s and bleached recently. Don't let its delicate overall appearance fool you because, as my lower back can attest, this baby is heavy. This is a beautiful credenza that follow the typical italian style with slanted sides, which create small triangular storage spaces on either sides of the two main front doors and drawer. Overall the credenza is very straight in lines. The drawers have flat overlay fronts, and the doors show chamfered panels with a raised carving and are framed by flat molding. The carving and molding help giving the piece some depth and decoration. The bleaching process also provided the credenza with additional warmth, depth and decoration, by bringing out the beautiful grain and underlying colors of the wood. The top of the credenza is composed of boards with ogee edge nailed to the main case. On the inside the credenza is very spacious, providing plenty of storage space. Overall this is a beautiful piece that has lived a long life, and has received some help in "hanging in there" over the years. This is a piece that will fit well with both modern and...
