Sleek Art Deco Dresser in Mirror-Polish Black with Four Drawers, France, 1940s

About the Item

Art Deco Black Lacquer Chest of Drawers – Elegant, Architectural, Refined This striking Art Deco chest of drawers is a celebration of symmetry and modernist geometry, wrapped in the deep, mirror-like sheen of black high-gloss piano lacquer. Measuring 92.5 cm wide (36.4”), 94.5 cm high (37.2”) and 42 cm deep (16.5”), this piece offers a commanding yet compact presence – perfect for sophisticated interiors where both form and function are equally desired. Its architectural silhouette is defined by clean lines and bold vertical columns flanking the body, giving the piece a monumental yet minimalist character. Four spacious drawers offer ample storage, each adorned with two precisely proportioned chrome-plated handles that lend a refined contrast to the dark lacquer. The fluted, cylindrical side elements reinforce the sense of rhythm and clarity typical of the most rigorous Art Deco design. Set on subtle, sculptural feet, the chest appears elevated, adding a touch of visual lightness to its solid build. More than just a chest of drawers, this is a sculptural furniture object that embodies timeless elegance and quiet confidence. Whether placed in a bedroom, hallway or dressing area, it brings not only utility but also architectural beauty and a luxurious touch to any setting. Its strict formality invites calm, order and clarity – making it a sophisticated anchor piece in a curated space.

French Art Deco Dresser in Black Lacquer with Polished Nickel Hardware, 1940s
Located in Ulm, DE
This elegant French Art Deco chest of drawers, created in the 1940s, is a striking example of refined craftsmanship and bold design. Expertly restored and finished in a deep, mirror-like black piano lacquer, it radiates timeless glamour while offering practical sophistication for modern interiors. Measuring 120 cm in width (47.2 in), 90 cm in height (35.4 in), and 50 cm in depth (19.7 in), this piece stands confidently without overwhelming a space — ideal for bedrooms, entryways, or living rooms. The commode features three spacious drawers, beautifully constructed with dovetail joints, each adorned with freshly nickel-plated circular handles that catch the light like finely cast jewelry. What makes this piece truly captivating is its sculptural presence: the body curves subtly outward at the front, framed by vertical columns reminiscent of classical architecture. These columnar details are crowned with polished metal finials, their Art Deco lines softened by the lustrous sheen of fresh nickel. The base flows into elegantly shaped legs, finished with refined metal sabots that echo the visual rhythm of the upper corners. The black lacquer surface is not simply painted, but built up through layers of traditional high-gloss piano finish — each one hand-polished to achieve a flawless, liquid-like surface that reflects its surroundings with incredible depth. More than just a chest of drawers, this Art Deco commode is a sculptural statement — designed to be admired, touched, and used. Whether holding your wardrobe essentials or serving as a luxurious accent in a curated interior, this piece embodies the elegance of 1940s Paris...
