A BRIEF HISTORY OF ART DECO  

There are many different styles from the 20th Century that are incredibly popular, though Art Deco stands out even among these many styles. Originating in France in the 1920’s, this style really came into its own in 1925 after the Paris exhibition . The freedom of expression that is associated with the Art Deco style leads to a variety of wildly different looks, colours, and uniquely designed desks that leave an impression. This design flourished by uniting a wide array of styles in a way that showed a clear "goal" of being modern. This vague goal results in Art Deco dressing tables being bold, surprising, and able to blend bold colour combinations, geometry-inspired from Cubism, exotic Far East styles, and a hint of royal European craftsmanship, it's hard denying the combinations available.
