Art Deco Porcelain
ART DECO STYLE
Art Deco furniture is characterized by its celebration of modern life. More than its emphasis on natural wood grains and focus on traditional craftsmanship, vintage Art Deco dining chairs, tables, desks, cabinets and other furniture — which typically refers to pieces produced during the 1920s and 1930s — is an ode to the glamour of the “Roaring Twenties.”
ORIGINS OF ART DECO FURNITURE DESIGN
- Emerged in the 1920s
- Flourished while the popularity of Art Nouveau declined
- Term derives from 1925’s Exposition Internationale des Arts Décoratifs et Industriels Modernes (International Exhibition of Modern Decorative and Industrial Arts) in Paris, France
- Informed by Ancient Egypt, Cubism, Futurism, Louis XVI, De Stijl, modernism and the Vienna Secession; influenced Streamline Moderne and mid-century modernism
CHARACTERISTICS OF ART DECO FURNITURE DESIGN
- Bold geometric lines and forms, floral motifs
- Use of expensive materials such as shagreen or marble as well as exotic woods such as mahogany, ebony and zebra wood
- Metal accents, shimmering mirrored finishes
- Embellishments made from exotic animal hides, inlays of mother-of-pearl or ivory
ART DECO FURNITURE DESIGNERS TO KNOW
VINTAGE ART DECO FURNITURE ON 1STDIBS
Few design styles are as universally recognized and appreciated as Art Deco. The term alone conjures visions of the Roaring Twenties, Machine Age metropolises, vast ocean liners, sleek typography and Prohibition-era hedonism. The iconic movement made an indelible mark on all fields of design throughout the 1920s and ’30s, celebrating society’s growing industrialization with refined elegance and stunning craftsmanship.
Widely known designers associated with the Art Deco style include Émile-Jacques Ruhlmann, Eileen Gray, Maurice Dufrêne, Paul Follot and Jules Leleu.
The term Art Deco derives from the name of a large decorative arts exhibition held in Paris in 1925. “Art Deco design” is often used broadly, to describe the work of creators in associated or ancillary styles. This is particularly true of American Art Deco, which is also called Streamline Moderne or Machine Age design. (Streamline Moderne, sometimes known as Art Moderne, was a phenomenon largely of the 1930s, post–Art Nouveau.)
Art Deco textile designers employed dazzling floral motifs and vivid colors, and while Art Deco furniture makers respected the dark woods and modern metals with which they worked, they frequently incorporated decorative embellishments such as exotic animal hides as well as veneers in their seating, case pieces, living room sets and bedroom furniture.
From mother-of-pearl inlaid vitrines to chrome aviator chairs, bold and inventive works in the Art Deco style include chaise longues (also known as chaise lounges) and curved armchairs. Today, the style is still favored by interior designers looking to infuse a home with an air of luxury and sophistication.
The vintage Art Deco furniture for sale on 1stDibs includes dressers, coffee tables, decorative objects and more.

Haviland Limoges Hand Painted Art Deco Porcelain Plates Water Lilies
By Haviland

Located in Clifton Springs, NY
Set of 4 unique, antique plates was made by Haviland
Cie in Limoges, France. The plates were hand painted by a professional artist in a decorating studio with Art Deco motif of five water lilies on pale blue background. Calm blue and green colors are accentuated by bright yellow centers of the flowers and the gold rims.
The advent of Arts and Craft Movement created the notion that the aesthetic quality of everyday utilitarian objects could be improved by merit of craftsmanship, and many painters and artists felt inspired to merge their activities into decorative arts, such as ceramics, decor objects, or dinnerware. Large number of wholesale and retail firms, such as Pickard, Stouffer, or Brauer studios, and many high-end department stores that carried factory decorated Limoges's porcelain, had their own china decorating departments and produced high quality hand painted porcelain.

Franciscan by Gladding McBean El Patio Jug Carafe w/ Lid, Sea Mist Green 1930s
Located in Clifton Springs, NY
Vintage Art deco style carafe or jug with lid features simple, clean design, the iconic “pretzel” shaped cup handle, and high gloss turquoise glaze. It's a part of El Patio line, attributed to Mary Grant, the first dinnerware line produced by Gladding McBean under their Franciscan Pottery division in 1934. The glaze color, Glacial Blue, is one of the first 8 glaze colorways for the line. El Patio line had three versions of the carafe – one with a wooden handle, one with a ceramic handle, and another with a metal holder; this carafe has the build-in ceramic handle, resulting in streamlined, monochromatic look.
The carafe is marked on the bottom with the oval GMCB mark that was in use from 1934 to 1938. The mark dates the piece to the earliest years of the production of El Patio, one of the five most important California solid colored dinnerware lines of the 1930s, alongside Pacific Hostessware, Bauer Ringware, Metlox 200 Series, and Vernon Kilns Early California.
The Gladding, McBean
Company, one of the biggest potteries in Southern California, was founded in 1875 in Lincoln, California. In 1934 the company began the manufacture of dinnerware and art ware under the trade name Franciscan Ware...

About Maiolica Cacciapuoti
(Artistic Majolica Fratelli Cacciapuoti of Giuseppe, Ettore & Guglielmo Cacciapuoti - Schioppa & Cacciapuoti - Neapolitan Artistic Ceramic Factory of Mario Cacciapuoti & C. - Gres d'Arte Cacciapuoti & Bignami & C. - Gres d'Arte Cacciapuoti - Cesare Cacciapuoti.)
The manufacturing of artistic ceramics "Cacciapuoti" was founded in Naples by Cesare Cacciapuoti, belonging to a family of maiolicaari from Campania.
His son Giuseppe (1828-1896) inherited the company circa 1880, when some of his works were exhibited, first in Turin and then in Milan.
In the factory also works his brother Ettore who presents some of his ceramics at the Paris Exhibition of 1889.
At the beginning of the twentieth century, the manufacture, specialized in terracotta imitating bronze and copper, is managed by the sons of Giuseppe, Cesare (who opened in 1883 a factory in its own association with the manufacturer of crockery Schioppa), Ettore and Guglielmo.
Among the collaborators of this early period we remember the painter Giovan Battista Foschi.
Between the end of the nineteenth and early twentieth centuries, painters and modellers of the highest level collaborated with the firm, including Attilio Pratella and Filippo Cifariello.
In the early twentieth century the manufacture passes into the hands of Ettore and Guglielmo who work to make the production more modern and competitive starting to produce earthenware works made by casting.
In 1906 Ettore left the factory and moved to Paris where he began his career as a painter and Guglielmo took over all the shares in the factory and continued production under the name of "Stabilimento Ceramico Artistico Partenopeo".
In 1907 the sons of Guglielmo, Mario and Guido moved to Treviso where they collaborated with the "Gregory" ceramic factory and where they met Arturo Martini
In 1927 Mario and Guido, in partnership with Angelo Bignami, who deals with the commercial and administrative sectors, left Treviso and founded the "Mario Cacciapuoti & C." ceramics factory in viale Premuda 34 in Milan. Which remains active until 1930.
In 1930 Mario died prematurely and the management of the company remained in the hands of Guido, who started manufacturing on the road to success, producing a production of high quality and quantity, both models and pieces.
Among the ceramists working for the manufacture we remember: Francesco De Matteis, Giuseppe Granello, Ruffo Giuntini, Silvio Righetto, Giuseppe Renda, Achille D'Orsi and De Martino.
In these years some animalist models are supplied to the manufactory by the sculptor and ceramist Sirio Tofanari...
