Here is an update of the Art-Deco furniture and other items we have recently sold and which have gone to be enjoyed by their new owners.

Art Deco Birdseye Maple Open Bookcase

We recently sold a particularly fine and unusual Art Deco Birdseye Maple Open Bookcase made from birdseye maple. This was a stunning and delightfully unusual birdseye maple circular open bookcase in the Art Deco style with a design that is both chic and minimalist – the epitome of the Deco ethos. This highly functional piece of furniture could be used to display various cherished pieces in addition to books.

The grain of the wood is truly breath-taking and the quality and attention to detail on display throughout this large and sturdy piece are second to none. The dimensions of the bookcase are: Height 156 cm     Width 123 cm     Depth 30 cm.

Another good-looking Art Deco piece to be sold was this

Antique Art Deco Blonde Oak Miramar Cocktail Bar dating from around 1930.

This fantastic antique Art Deco ‘The Miramar’ cocktail cabinet with still carries the maker’s plaque for Rivington, London, EC2,. Rivington were well known and designed and manufactured a large range of beautiful items during the first half of the 20th century. This particular cocktail cabinet is made of beautiful blonde oak and has a bow front outline.

The upper section has ribbed doors which enclose a beautiful mirrored interior, complete with a glass shelf. The inside of each door has a galleried shelf for mixers and small bottles and glasses.

There is an internal light which comes on when the door is opened. This feature has been rewired and now works perfectly.

To assist with the service of drinks, there is a pull out mirrored slide fitted. Twin doors at the bottom open to reveal a storage cupboard for bottles etc. and the whole unit stands on an ebonised plinth.

The cabinet was supplied with working locks and keys.

We also said “farewell” to this

Its new owners are sure to be proud of this fine piece.

Before we go…… Not furniture of course, but we thought we’d end on a slightly naughty note with this delightful

Art Deco Bronze Sexy Female Dominatrix Bruno Zach

This is a very striking Art Deco style dominatrix lady bronze mounted on a marble base, after Bruno Zach, the famous German Art Deco sculptor. The statue depicts a dominatrix carrying a cane, which she clutches with both hands, while looking inquisitively to her side.

In fact this is a recast of the original piece by Bruno Zach who was known for his wild depictions of women.

It is a high quality hot cast solid bronze was produced using the traditional “lost wax” process, otherwise known as the “cire perdue” method.
