French Art Deco Sideboard with Floral Marquetry and Inward-Curved Front, 1930s
Located in Ulm, DE
This exquisite Art Deco sideboard from France, dating to the 1930s, is a masterwork of early 20th-century decorative arts — striking in both silhouette and craftsmanship. Its inwardly curved front sets it apart: a sculptural gesture that draws the gaze to its center, where a breathtaking marquetry medallion in warm-toned fruitwoods unfurls like a blooming bouquet. Accents in polished brass punctuate the composition with refined brilliance. Crafted from a symphony of richly grained woods, the surface shimmers under a lustrous, hand-polished French shellac finish, applied in the traditional manner to enhance depth and clarity. The sideboard rests on a sleek, black lacquered plinth that subtly contrasts the warmth of the wood and reinforces its architectural presence. Behind four doors — framed by veneered sunburst patterns that radiate from the center — lie generous storage compartments, beautifully finished inside and perfectly suited for dining essentials, collectibles, or even media equipment. The dimensions of this statement piece — 190 cm (74.8”) wide, 97.5 cm (38.4”) high, and 46 cm (18.1”) deep — make it a commanding yet elegant presence in both classic and contemporary interiors. Whether used as a buffet in a dining room, a console in an entryway, or a stylish bar or media cabinet, this original 1930s Art Deco commode...
