About the Item
One of a kind Art Deco bar cabinet, characterized by its geometric elegance, use of luxurious materials, and a strong decorative element that exalts the modern design of the early decades of the 20th century.
The cabinet's structure is made of black lacquered wood, giving it a deep, glossy, and sophisticated finish. This lacquer contrasts harmoniously with the exotic wood marquetry, whose arrangement in triangular and V-shaped shapes creates a dynamic and symmetrical focal point, characteristic of the visual language of Art Deco. These masterfully crafted inlays use different shades, from warm browns to golden veins, which stand out for their chromatic richness and natural texture. Geometry dominates the design: straight lines, sharp angles, and symmetry reinforce the modern and rational aesthetic of Art Deco, evoking the dynamism of the machine age and progress. The entire front is a revolving door that conceals three shelves inside for storing bottles and glasses.
The stepped base is reminiscent of the architecture of 1930s New York skyscrapers, another characteristic symbol of this movement. Overall, this piece not only serves a practical function as a bar, but also stands as a sculptural and decorative work in its own right.
Eric Yerno (1963-2024)
Eric Yerno, whose father was from Granada, was born in Paris, although he lived in Madrid for almost forty years. He became a pioneer and a leading figure in communications in the Spanish luxury sector. During his career, he boosted the image of renowned brands such as Loewe, Louis Vuitton, and Hermès.
He was a great collector of art and design, and throughout his life he collected unique pieces and objects, distinguishing between disciplines and formats. The apartment where he held his meetings was located opposite the Retiro Park, where, in an environment centered on art and design, Yerno brought together high society. The apartment stood out for its very personal decor, where he mixed antiques from different cultures, such as classic French furniture, pieces influenced by Arabic aesthetics (his maternal family is from Egypt), and pieces from 1960s and 1970s design. One of his great passions was Orientalism. Many of these pieces are souvenirs from his travels or gifts from clients and friends, although the pieces inherited from his grandmother, who was born in Oman and lived in Cairo, are particularly noteworthy.
About the Art Deco Style
The term Art Deco was defined in the 1960s to refer to the art that emerged during the interwar period. It was a style that developed in all facets of design and reached its peak at the International Exhibition of Decorative Arts in Paris (1925). Art Deco is notable for its use of straight lines and geometric volumes; it is a style that emerged from the combination of different trends. Some of the major influences of Art Deco are avant-garde art, mechanization, and archaeological discoveries in Ancient Egypt and Mesopotamia.
Art Deco differs from other artistic periods in that it is a purely decorative style where artists focused on creating attractive and balanced pieces that reflected the society of the time.
