Modernist Art Deco Sideboard Attributed to Jacques Adnet, circa 1940
About the Item
The result of successive eliminations of ornamentation, palette and form, this supremely Modernist sideboard is a masterpiece of the Rationalist approach to design
The black lacquer stands alone, punctuated by only the gold of the sideboard’s four brass handles. Sloped inward as their line descends vertically from the height at which they would be held, these handles are a testament to a functional attention to detail.
Aside from this, there is only the subtlest of ornamentation, seen elsewhere in Adnet’s documented work from this period: the framing of a slight trim to inset its rectangular form, and the simple geometry of the two proportioned legs, marginally lipped over the body of the sideboard in a way which is uniquely Adnet.

- Art Deco Sideboard Attributed to Eliel SaarinenBy Eliel SaarinenLocated in Atlanta, GARare sideboard attributed to Eliel Saarinen (father of Eero Saarinen) designed before his immigration to the United States. In a style that we now refer to as "Art Deco," this style was considered the "National Romantic Style" in Finland essentially a twist on what became known worldwide as Art Deco with its strong vertical lines and medieval references. The workmanship of this cabinet and its materials is magnificent. Note the carefully matched panels of golden masurbjork (birch root), the intricate carvings of medieval knights (very similar to those guarding Saarinen's Helsinki Railway Station built in 1906) and the high contrast of golden and dark birch wood seen again in Saarinen's furniture designed in the United States in the late 1920s. While Saarinen's son Eero went on to become the more famous of the two, it was Eliel who could be considered the grandfather of Nordic Art Deco...Category
