About the Item

A rare and exceptional piece of Swedish Grace furniture, handmade in Sweden in the 1920s. Attributed to famed furniture designer Otto Schulz of Boet, this cabinet showcases the sophisticated Swedish Grace style, an important period of Neoclassical Revival in Scandinavia (1910s–1930s). Swedish Grace (often described as refined Swedish Art Deco) served as the elegant bridge between traditional classicism and the emerging Functionalist movement. Pieces from this era are highly valued for their superb craftsmanship and luxurious materials. • Hand-Carved Figures: The doors feature highly detailed, hand-carved Caryatid figures (classical female forms), providing a luxurious architectural focal point typical of the style's classical influence. • Premium Wood: Constructed from rich, deep-toned solid mahogany, golden elm and beautiful highly figured crotch mahogany book-matched veneer, reflecting the era's focus on material prestige. • Versatile Storage: The closed storage space functions perfectly as a modern Bar Cabinet for spirits and glassware or as an elegant linen and dining storage or server. •Three felt lined drawers. •Movable interior shelves. •Antique brass mock key pulls and retrofitted interior magnets for a firm closure. This unique antique is an unmistakable statement of European artistry and history. #BS-777

Art Deco Cabinet Attributed to Eliel Saarinen
By Eliel Saarinen
Located in Atlanta, GA
Rare dining cabinet attributed to Eliel Saarinen (father of Eero Saarinen) designed before his immigration to the United States. In a style that we now refer to as "Art Deco," this style was considered the "National Romantic Style" in Finland - essentially a twist on what became known worldwide as Art Deco - with its strong vertical lines and medieval references. The workmanship of this cabinet and its materials is magnificent. Note the carefully matched panels of golden masurbjork (Burl Birch root), the intricate carvings of medieval knights (very similar to those guarding Saarinen's Helsinki Railway Station built in 1906) and the high contrast of golden and dark birch wood - seen again in Saarinen's furniture designed in the United States in the late 1920s. While Saarinen's son Eero went on to become the more famous of the two, it was Eliel who could be considered the grandfather of Nordic Art Deco...
