About the Item

Classic American Art Deco Paul Frankl Style Skyscraper Stands / Bedside Tables,, Amazing design bookcase , cubbies, one stand missing shelf (see photos) Retain original finish ,patina.. Age appropriate wear, some veneer damage.Hand delivery avail to New York City or anywhere en route from Buffalo NY As early as 1925 Paul T. Frankl designed wooden cabinetry inspired by the soaring buildings with flat surfaces, sharp angles, and stepped silhouettes that were being constructed in Manhattan. Thoroughly inspired by the modern and purely American forms of the skyscraper, his work also reflected the ornamental style of his native Vienna, where he trained as an architect and worked until 1914. While his book New Dimensions (1928) extolled the skyscraper as a “distinctive and noble creation . . . a monument of towering engineering and business enterprise,” Frankl rejected the idea that modern furniture should be standardized and mass-produced. Instead, he promoted individual craftsmanship and the same ideals of honesty, simplicity, and beauty in natural materials that were found in the writings of the members of the Arts and Crafts movement and of Frank Lloyd Wright, to whom New Dimensions was dedicated.
