Pair of Art Deco boxes, ca 1920-1930.
Walnut root veneered wood structure.
Measurements: 42 x 17,2 x 17,5 cm; 38,5 x 34,5 x 13,5 cm.

A refined and singular set representative of the geometric taste and restrained luxury typical of Art Deco, this pair of boxes combines formal purity and material-visual richness.

Made of wood covered with walnut root, they dialogue with each other with their prismatic shapes and refined lines. The contrast between the geometric severity of the forms and the organic vibration of the grain creates a typically Art Deco dialogue: structural rationality and natural exuberance. The carefully fitted tops reveal smooth wood interiors that emphasize the nobility of the material and the quality of workmanship.

Beyond their function as storage boxes or dressing tables, these pieces have a clear decorative and sculptural dimension, especially the one with the stepped profile, whose volumetric presence makes them objects of strong visual impact.

As a whole, they are a harmonious and elegant pair, ideal for both classically inspired and contemporary interiors, where the warm glow of the root adds sophistication and character.
