Art Deco Beds and Headboards
Art Deco Beds make a wonderful feature in a simple uncluttered room and can add a striking focal point to a well designed bedroom.Art Deco brought an exotic, vibrant style to the most precious and exclusive works of art as well as to mass-produced objects that were widely available.
Art Deco flourished between the two world wars and is characterized by the use of materials such as aluminium, stainless steel, leather, lacquer, inlaid wood and exotic materials such as ivory, shark skin, and zebra skin.
The ever popular art deco style is an architectural and decorative-arts style, popular from 1910 to 1940.
Art deco is characterised by highly stylised natural and geometric forms and ornaments, which are usually very symmetrical. Art Deco themes were often classical motifs reduced to geometric stylisations.
Art Deco glass uses geometric patterns, bold colours, exuberant, sometimes stylised, female figures, and animal motifs. Major designers of Art Deco glass were Rene Lalique, Maurice Marinot, Daum Freres, Marius Sabino, Etling, Schneider, Gabriel Argy-Rousseau, and Francois Decorchemont.
