What to Look For in Art Deco End Tables

Size
Art Deco end tables come in a wide variety of sizes. Therefore, you want to ensure that your end table fits with your existing furnishings. If you will be placing the Art Deco end table at the end of a couch, you will want the table to have the same or less depth than the couch. If you are placing the table next to a chair, you would also want to ensure that the table's depth does not exceed that of the chair. Along with table depth, height is another important consideration. You certainly do not want a table that is taller than your furniture, but you also don't want it to be so low to make it uncomfortable to reach anything sitting on the table.

Shape
When shopping for Art Deco end tables, shape is another critical aspect to consider. A round or oval shaped Art Deco end table can help to make your living room flow nicely and appear less blocky. That being said, a rectangular or square shaped end table tend to very nicely at the end of a couch or next to a chair. Ultimately, you should choose an end table that fits with the style and design of your existing furniture.

Color
Color is an important feature of an Art Deco end table to think about. Assuming that your table is made from wood, you want the color of the wood to match any other furniture you have in the room. So, if your current furniture is made from a cherry color wood, look for Art Deco end tables that are also cherry. Simple as that!

In 1925, the term “Art Deco” first came about at the World Fair in Paris. The official name of the fair was the Exposition Internationale des Arts Décoratifs et Industriels Modernes. Art Deco was simply a shortened version of this title. After the World Fair, Paris immediately became the center for all things Art Deco. Art Deco designers such as metal artist Jean Dunand and furniture maker Jacques Emile Ruhlmann first rose to prominence at this time.

True to their name, Art Deco tables characterize the materials that have come to reflect the style of Art Deco. These tables are typically constructed from rich mahogany or other fine wood and oftentimes complemented with glass or metals such as stainless steel and aluminum.

Art Deco oftentimes incorporates movement or the appearance of movement into its designs, and Art Deco tables are no exception. These tables usually feature sweeping curves and many also have sunburst motifs, another common element of Art Deco design.

Early on, Art Deco was primarily associated with the wealthy and upper class citizens. As a result, it is quite common to see an Art Deco table at upscale gathering places such as high-end hotels and fine-dining establishments.

Whether you are looking for an original Art Deco table from the 1930’s or a less expensive reproduction, Art Deco tables can be purchased for very reasonable prices online. Be sure to compare prices and table quality, when shopping for reproduction or antique tables. eBay is a great source for Art Deco furniture in general, as the selection and prices you will find there are tough to beat.
