About the Item

Dimensions - H: 38 3/4 in W: 84 3/4 in D: 20 in An exceptional and finely crafted French Art Deco rosewood sideboard, designed in the manner of Émile-Jacques Ruhlmann, one of the most celebrated designers of the early 20th century. This exquisite piece reflects the refined elegance and meticulous craftsmanship that defined French luxury furniture during the Art Deco period, circa 1930s. The sideboard is masterfully constructed from richly figured rosewood, boasting a deep, lustrous finish that highlights the natural beauty and movement of the grain. The streamlined form is both stately and sophisticated, with subtle curves and restrained ornamentation that embody the Ruhlmann school of design—where form and material harmonize with understated opulence. The facade features four paneled doors: the two outer doors open to reveal spacious compartments each fitted with a single shelf, perfect for storing serveware or larger essentials. The central doors open to a generously sized interior housing two dovetailed drawers above an additional full-width shelf, offering both utility and elegance. The sideboard is adorned with gilt metal escutcheon plates, finely cast in a geometric Art Deco motif and signed “MB,” likely referring to a skilled bronzier of the period. These accents are complemented by original locks signed “E. Schmidt Paris”—a renowned French locksmith known for producing high-quality hardware for elite cabinetmakers and decorators in the early 20th century. The restrained use of gilt bronze detailing and the sideboard’s overall architectural form reflect the neoclassical influence often seen in Ruhlmann’s works, while the rosewood veneer lends it a sense of warmth and modernity. The piece rests on tapered platform base, providing visual balance and a sense of grounded elegance. Perfect for a formal dining room, high-design interior, or curated Art Deco collection, this sideboard is a timeless representation of French luxury and design pedigree. The piece is in good antique/vintage condition with the exception of some light surface scratches, minor ding or two, Minor finish loss and normal age related wear. As to be expected with items of age and use. If you have any questions please do not hesitate to reach out and ask! - D&P Luxuries
