Burlwood Secretary Desk Dresser and Chest of Drawers Set in French Polish, 1930s
This magnificent pair of circa 1930s Art Deco Burlwood dressers were just refinished in a gorgeous French Polish which is the most luxurious, expensive and laborious finish available, providing amazing depth and detail to the exotic wood grain and gives a smooth yet hard and protective surface ready to take on every day use.
Just look at all the incredible details on these dressers, the contrast of exotic woods from the Burled top and fronts against the striking figured African Walnut sides, the curvaceous sculpted Deco shapes, the unique brass handles and detailing. Inside of the drop-front secretary cabinet is a cubby for storage of papers, envelopes and more and inside of the top drawer of the dresser are change holders. Such quality craftsmanship and use of luxury materials, something you don't find in todays manufacturing making this an exemplary example of the saying 'they don't make them like they used to'. This set is almost 100 years old and with its new French Polish can easily last more than another 100 years.
This pair of Burlwood secretary desk dresser and chest of drawers would work great in an Art Deco, Hollywood Regency, Post-Modern or Mid-Century Modern home or penthouse apartment but could also look fantastic in a Contemporary, Space Age Mod, Scandanavian Modern, Danish Modern or Zen / Minimalist room. Also consider mixing it up in a Traditional, Transitional, or Classical room with a splash of juxtaposition. Would also be an apt choice in a commercial project such as a hotel lobby lounge or members club, creative design studio or high-rise executive office.
