Wooden Art Deco Waterfall Chifferobe

History

This Art Deco waterfall chifferobe dates from the 1930s-1940s, during the height of the Art Deco movement in American furniture design. The piece features the characteristic 'waterfall' edge design where the wood veneer cascades over the top edge, creating a rounded appearance that was highly fashionable during this period. Waterfall bedroom furniture became extremely popular in middle-class American homes during the Depression and post-Depression era. These pieces are valued by mid-century furniture collectors and Art Deco enthusiasts for their distinctive styling and historical connection to an important design movement. The combination wardrobe and drawer storage made these practical pieces for smaller homes and apartments of the era.
