Walnut Veneer Cubist Console

About the Item

This dramatic 1960s console features walnut veneer and a cantilevered form. During the 1960s and 1970s, Hungarian furniture makers were encouraged to create simple, modern designs that could be mass-produced. They were intended to compete with Western European fashions and thereby show the success of the Socialist system. Many were quite daring and this this daring was often expressed in a Brutalist vocabulary. That included sharp angles, cantilevers, asymmetry and basically anything that went against the grain of traditional balance and order. However, Hungarian furniture makers had a long history of working with glossy and sophisticated veneers and (intentionally or unintentionally) made the most austere designs quite luxurious. This console features finely grained and matched walnut veneers that produce a very dressy and sophisticated impression. The console is ideal for a contemporary entry hall, dining area or bedroom.
