About the Item
This four-panel folding screen was crafted in France during the late 1930s to early 1940s and blends classic Art Deco geometry with a subtle East-Asian influence. The gold-leaf surface is decorated with finely painted water birds, reeds and water-side vegetation, creating a balanced and serene composition characteristic of the period.
Each panel is hinged to allow flexible positioning, whether fully extended or arranged in an angled shape. This makes the screen suitable for a wide range of settings — from entrance halls and living rooms to open loft spaces where a decorative, sculptural divider can subtly structure the room.
The bases are newly crafted to match the historic proportions and were finished with authentic gold leaf. Their clear, architectural form anchors the composition and ensures that the newly made elements blend seamlessly with the original Art Deco surfaces.

French Art Deco Sideboard with Floral Marquetry and Inward-Curved Front, 1930s
Located in Ulm, DE
This exquisite Art Deco sideboard from France, dating to the 1930s, is a masterwork of early 20th-century decorative arts — striking in both silhouette and craftsmanship. Its inwardly curved front sets it apart: a sculptural gesture that draws the gaze to its center, where a breathtaking marquetry medallion in warm-toned fruitwoods unfurls like a blooming bouquet. Accents in polished brass punctuate the composition with refined brilliance.
Crafted from a symphony of richly grained woods, the surface shimmers under a lustrous, hand-polished French shellac finish, applied in the traditional manner to enhance depth and clarity. The sideboard rests on a sleek, black lacquered plinth that subtly contrasts the warmth of the wood and reinforces its architectural presence.
Behind four doors — framed by veneered sunburst patterns that radiate from the center — lie generous storage compartments, beautifully finished inside and perfectly suited for dining essentials, collectibles, or even media equipment. The dimensions of this statement piece — 190 cm (74.8”) wide, 97.5 cm (38.4”) high, and 46 cm (18.1”) deep — make it a commanding yet elegant presence in both classic and contemporary interiors.
Whether used as a buffet in a dining room, a console in an entryway, or a stylish bar or media cabinet, this original 1930s Art Deco commode...
