Ivory Art Deco Cabinet by Charles Van Beerleire - 1930s

Description

Made in Belgium in 1930, this exceptional Art Deco cabinet blends the elegance of the era with a strikingly modern edge. Its clean geometric lines contrast with the sculptural black lacquered base, whose bold, curved silhouette hints at a postmodern aesthetic - remarkably ahead of its time. The smooth ivory lacquered body is accented by sleek silvered bronze handles, enhancing its refined yet playful design.

Crafted by "La Flandre", the esteemed Ghent-based studio of Charles Van Beerleire (1886–1955), the cabinet reflects the workshop’s dedication to bespoke furniture for high-society clients, often in collaboration with leading architects. Believed to be one of a kind, it embodies the luxurious craftsmanship of the 1930s while foreshadowing the expressive forms of postmodernism.
