Scandinavian Functionalism / Art Deco, Chest of Drawers in Birch, 1930s–40s
A refined Scandinavian chest of drawers dating from the 1930s–1940s, designed in the transitional period between Functionalism (Funkis) and Art Deco. The piece is characterized by its streamlined silhouette, gently curved edges, and a restrained decorative language that emphasizes balance, proportion, and practicality.
The smooth veneered birch wood surfaces showcase the natural beauty of the wood, while the dark horizontal handles create a subtle graphic contrast, reinforcing the horizontal emphasis typical of the period. Elegant yet understated, this chest of drawers reflects the modernist ideals of early 20th-century Scandinavian design, where functionality and visual harmony coexist seamlessly.
Its timeless form makes it well suited for both period interiors and contemporary spaces seeking a sculptural, design-led storage solution.
This fine chest of drawers will complement many interior styles. A Vintage, Antique, Classic, Scandinavian, Modern, or an Art Deco home decor.
