Rare and Important French Art Deco Modernist Bedroom Suite
Attributed to Robert Mallet Stevens
Circa 1930, France

Modernist Armoire and matching Bed with pair of floating attached nightstands.
Sycamore, exotic Macassar ebony and black lacquer. One of the best suites we have ever offered.

The symmetrically designed armoire features left and right doors (interior has adjustable shelves)
opened by sleek metal and wood Modernist door pulls. The pulls feature a unusual red ‘half sphere’ design. The center bank of 5 dovetailed drawers each open with one single cylinder shaped wood pull, painted in black lacquer.  Above the center bank of drawers is a open shelf for books or display.

The Sycamore door edges/ cabinet sides are curved at ends and capped with a square edge end section of exotic Macassar ebony,to match the raised plinth base the armoire is resting on.

The bed frame is mainly sycamore, with two (left and right) attached floating open nightstands, each with 2 shelves. The curve on the nightstands repeats the design of the armoire cabinet ends. The base and center section of the footboard resembles the base and side design of the armoire in macassar ebony. The ends of the footboard are also curved like the armoire ends.

Currently this art deco bed is in the original queen size.
This could be respectfully converted into a king size bed by our skilled carpenter.
He would split the headboard in the centerand add a raised center panel of macassar ebony,
to compliment the footboard design. The footboard would remain the same and can be used as shown with new sideboards that wrap around the front corners, to form a platform style bed.
Or.. it can simply be used to attach to the foot of the bed and eliminate any sideboards.

Armoire Dimensions: 69 “ high, 72 “ wide, 22  “ Deep, + 2” deep door pulls.
Center display opening: 13 ½” high, 18 “ wide, 11 ½” deep.

.

Condition: Currently in very good original condition, with a few repairs done over the years on the edges of the armoire’s curved doors and top edge of the footboard. (see photos below)
