About the Item
Enhance your interior with this iconic Art Deco Streamlined High Chest, designed by the illustrious Donald Deskey, circa 1930. This American-made piece exemplifies Deskey's signature style and the refined elegance of the Art Deco era, featuring a stunning robin's egg blue lacquer finish that brings a touch of sophistication and color to any room.
