Vintage Design
A decadent rare Art Deco cabinet in flamed birch. Designed by Swedish Designer Axel Einar Hjorth, model “Roma” made for Bodafors Sweden, 1920s. Great condition considered almost 100 years of wear. Axel Einar Hjorth represented Sweden at international fairs around the world, promoting contemporary Swedish Decorative Arts. His designs were always sleek and often inspired by the Art Deco movement although he was amongst the pioneers of Swedish modernism. During its birth in the 1920s, Swedish modernism started to attract international recognition and Einar Hjorth’s work inspired many younger Swedish designers. “There is no style like art deco that embraces both the figurative and the abstract, the feminine and the masculine, the monumenta, the stringent and the opulent, the functional and the unnecessary. Art deco is a seducer who, with its cool language, will generously enrich our lives with beauty”.
