Art Deco 1930s Walnut Veneer Tallboy Retro Vintage Bedroom Cabinet Chest of Drawers Clothes Cupboard Chrome Handles FREE HAND Delivery

This is an original top quality and very clean 1930s Art Deco wardrobe in walnut veneer, a genuine period piece that combines style with practicality. Made around ninety years ago, it carries all the distinctive features of the Deco era, from the striking symmetry of the door veneers to the clean geometric lines and subtle carved scroll details to the top corners. The walnut veneer has been carefully book-matched to create a mirrored flame pattern across the front doors and drawers, a hallmark of the craftsmanship of the time, giving the piece real decorative presence.

The wardrobe offers excellent storage and versatility. The upper section opens with two doors fitted with their original chrome handles, revealing an interior with fitted shelves that can be used for folded clothes, bed linens, or even as a compact cupboard for general household storage. Beneath this are two deep drawers, also retaining their chrome fittings, ideal for additional garments, accessories, or household essentials. The whole piece stands on solid carved feet, sturdy and stable, designed to endure daily use.

In terms of condition, this wardrobe remains in very good order for its considerable age. The walnut veneer retains a rich sheen, with only light surface marks and minor wear consistent with nine decades of careful use. The handles show natural signs of age but are secure and functional. The drawers run smoothly and the doors close well. The interior is clean and ready for immediate use, with no unpleasant odours. Overall, this is a piece that has been looked after and presents beautifully, without the need for restoration before use. There are signs of repair to the wood around the tight hand door hinges.

This wardrobe is not just functional storage but also a statement piece of vintage furniture. The bold veneer patterns and period details make it a focal point in any room, adding character and history to both traditional and modern interiors. It would work perfectly in a bedroom, guest room, or even as a statement hallway or living room cabinet, offering practical storage while reflecting the glamour and craftsmanship of the Art Deco era.

Owning a piece like this is also about appreciating the story it carries. Nearly a century old, it has survived fashions and generations, and continues to serve as both a practical household item and a decorative object. Pieces of this quality and originality are becoming increasingly scarce, and this wardrobe represents a chance to acquire an authentic slice of 1930s design history that remains as useful today as when it was first made.

It is a heavy top quality piece and not to be confused by the cheaper ply veneered pieces. This is made of solid wood and thick heavy board with the veneers.
