Rare Art Deco Streamlined Moderne Dresser by Count Alexis de Sakhnoffsky
Rare Art Deco Streamlined Moderne Dresser by Count Alexis de Sakhnoffsky

Rare Art Deco Streamlined Moderne Dresser by Count Alexis de Sakhnoffsky

By Count Alexis de Sakhnoffsky

Located in Lafayette, IN

Rare streamlined dresser by Count Alexis de Sakhnoffsky for Red Lion Furniture. The count was famous for his wonderfully stylized Industrial designs and worked with major automakers of the day like Auburn, Cord, Packard, Tucker and the White Truck Co. This dresser features wonderful, asymmetrical streamlined lines, unique round drawer pulls, and Stunning Circassion Walnut Veneer. This dresser was originally designed by Sakhnoffsky for display in the "House of Tomorrow" during the 1939 New York World's fair! Some more info on Count Alexis de Sakhnoffsky: Count Alexis de Sakhnoffsky was born in Russia in 1901, the son of an Advisor to Tsar Nicholas II. Following the Russian revolution he escaped to the continent and began a career as an automobile designer emigrating to America in 1929. In America he designed many famous automobiles and his drawings of futuristic cars appeared in Esquire Magazine from 1934 on. In furniture he advocated streamline design as in the Bloomingdale’s Department Store furniture shown at the 1939-40 World’s Fair in New York. Outside automobiles and furniture, de Sakhnoffsky also created designs in the areas of aircraft design (Sabca), boat design (feather-Craft), Bike design (Murray), watch design (Gruen), and radio design (Emerson). This desk represents the perfect culmination of all of these influences and is one of the best examples of his 'streamline' furniture design aesthetic. Add to all of that the 1939 World's Fair connection and you have an extremely rare collector's piece that spans an almost infinite number of genres! Automotive designs by Sakhnoffsky: 1929 Cord l-29 Special Coupe 1934 Packard Twelve Model 1106 Sport Coupe & Runabout Speedster 1947 White Labatt Streamliner Delivery Truck 1938-41 American Austin Bantam Commander Gatti's 1937 International Harvester...

Vintage Hollywood Regency Asian-Inspired White Lacquered Highboy Dresser, 1950s

Located in North Hollywood, CA

This stunning vintage Hollywood Regency highboy dresser, crafted in the United States during the 1950s, is a beautiful example of glamour and timeless design. Professionally restored in a white lacquer finish, the piece radiates crisp elegance, immediately brightening a space while allowing its sculptural brass details to take center stage. The design is heavily influenced by classic Asian and Chinoiserie-inspired architecture, most notably seen in the gracefully curved feet and subtly flared top. The upper cabinet doors are adorned with dramatic polished brass plates and original medallion pulls, creating a striking focal point that gives the piece an unmistakably luxurious presence. Below, three spacious dovetailed drawers feature original polished brass pulls reminiscent of stylized bison horns...
