Sellette Art Deco with geometric marquetry 1930

This superb harness or narrow high pedestal with slender feet, is characteristic of the art deco period, this artistic movement that took over from art nouveau. After the exuberant shapes and decorations of flowers or insects, there is room for geometric patterns and sober curves. The upper round tray has a pattern encrusted with geometric shapes with a perspective effect. The intermediate crotch tablet, which reinforces the footing, is concave in shape, which accentuates the refined silhouette of the harness. Its motifs are reminiscent of those of the upper shelf. The feet and the belt also have inclusions. All the parts worked testifies to a piece of furniture of very fine craftsmanship. The wood is patinated in some places, bringing with it the charm of an object that has lived. It has also worked slightly at the level of some inclusions on the top shelf, but this does not alter the visual of the object. This decorative piece of furniture, which can be used as a repository for a living room lamp, a green plant or a decorative object, will work wonders in an entrance, living room or bedroom. Witness to the talent of the lorraine cabinetmakers, he will delight lovers of beautiful objects with a soul. Height: 71 cm. Upper shelf diameter: 47 cm. Lower plateau height: 15, 5 cm. Width: 33 cm.
