Description
Two-door Art Deco wardrobe, oak structure with inlaid maple panels, Italian craftsmanship, 1930s.
The geometric lines of this oak wardrobe reflect the Italian style of the 1930s. Positioned between Rationalism and Art Deco, the piece appears directly inspired by the architecture of the era. Resting on a horizontally grooved oak base, the wardrobe features a simple, well-proportioned parallelepiped design. Its aesthetic appeal lies in the contrast between different wood types, creating a restrained yet refined play of textures and colors. This choice recalls the façades of buildings from the period, where travertine, smooth concrete, and rusticated stone details lent an interplay of textures to architectural exteriors.
The sole decorative liberty in this otherwise minimal design is found in the door panels. These feature perpendicular lines inlaid in maple, forming a grid that accentuates the wardrobe's geometric forms. Particularly notable are the original handles, crafted from durable plastic and polished brass, which take the form of stylized flowers—elaborate and of significant size, these details add a touch of refinement to the piece.
With a spacious interior, the wardrobe is ideal for a bedroom or as a storage solution. A professional restoration has revived its original polish, ensuring the piece is returned to its former glory.
