Elegant Italian art deco chest of drawers with brass inserts

About the Item

A truly elegant and refined Italian Art Deco chest of drawers, this piece captures the essence of early 20th-century craftsmanship with its timeless lines, luxurious materials, and sculptural form. Designed with both aesthetics and function in mind, it is a statement piece that adds character, sophistication, and historical value to any interior. Crafted from fine wood, the chest of drawers showcases graceful flowing lines, especially evident in the beautifully curved drawer fronts-a testament to the exceptional skill of Italian cabinetmakers of the Art Deco era. The curvature is not just visual, but tactile, enhancing the sculptural quality of the piece while maintaining its functionality. The feet are carved in a subtle triangular shape, providing stability and visual lightness, a refined geometric detail that reinforces the piece's Art Deco identity. Each drawer is equipped with a designed brass handle, complete with a Bakelite-like insert, a detail that enriches the tactile and visual experience. The drawers glide smoothly and are completely removable, making this piece as practical as it is stylish. ( looks like backelite). Adding to its charm are the light wood profiles, perfectly inlaid around the structure to frame and emphasize its contours with subtle contrast. At the corners, the chest features rounded edges, giving the piece a sense of softness, volume, and understated elegance. For added security and authenticity, the chest can be locked with an original brass key, a detail that underscores its historical integrity. Minor wear consistent with age is present, but professional restoration will be completed before shipping, ensuring the chest arrives in excellent condition while preserving its vintage character.
