About the Item
Art Deco Demi-Lune
Origin of the Form
The semicircular demi-lune console table traces its origins back to the French console and commode forms of the late 18th century (Louis XVI, Directoire), where the semicircular base was already valued as a space-saving and elegant wall solution.
Transition to Modernism
Around 1900, the demi-lune was revived and formally simplified in French Art Nouveau and early Art Deco:
There is less carved decoration, instead an emphasis on the clean silhouette and the veneer surfaces.
Art Deco’s High Point (c. 1920–1935)
During the Art Deco period itself, the demi-lune console table flourished as a prestigious entryway and parlor table. Leading Parisian furniture makers (including Ruhlmann, Leleu, and Dominique) used the form for consoles, sideboards, and small bar cabinets.
Typical features of Art Deco:
Semicircular or segmental base, clean geometry, usually on four tapered legs; high-quality veneers such as Makassar, rosewood, and amboina, often combined with black lacquer, chrome fittings, and occasionally inlays or metal inlays.
Function and effect:
As a narrow wall console or placed symmetrically as a pair, the Demi-Lune frames doors, mirrors, or windows and adds an elegant, modern touch to the entryway or living room—a compact piece of furniture that combines representation and function (storage, drawers, small bar).
The console is available individually or as a decorative pair.

Robert Mallet-Stevens studied at the École Spéciale d’Architecture in Paris from 1903 to 1906. In 1912, he exhibited his works at the Salon d’Automne and met architects Pierre Chareau (1853-1950) and René Herbst. In 1913, he designed a villa for Madame Paquin in Deauville and developed projects for exhibitions in Grand Lyon, London, Brussels, and San Francisco. From 1920 to 1921, he designed sets for the films Jettatura by Pierre-Gilles Veber and Le Secret de Rosette Lambert by Raymond Bernard.
Mallet-Stevens received the commission for his first building, the Villa Noailles for Viscount Charles de Noailles in Hyères (Var department), in 1923. In 1924, he organized an exhibition of the Dutch artistic group De Stijl. The following year, he built the Alfa-Romeo showroom on Rue Marbeuf and the Pavillon du Tourisme at the Exposition Internationale des Arts Décoratifs et Industriels Modernes. From 1926 to 1927, he built the residential houses on Rue Mallet-Stevens in Auteuil (Paris). He founded the Union des Artistes Modernes in 1929 and designed the apartment of Tamara de Lempicka on Rue Méchain in the same year.
