Donald Deskey Three Panel Wood Screen Art Deco

Creator: Donald Deskey
Offered by: ArtDecoCollection.com

Description
This three-panel lacquered wood screen, crafted in Donald Deskey’s style, exemplifies his renowned modernist approach with exceptional quality. Its design creates a sense of depth between the different sections, showcasing the mastery of craftsmanship. Originally commissioned for the Glendon Allvine residence in Long Beach, New York, in 1928, this Art Deco piece reflects Deskey’s distinctive style, gracing notable interiors such as New York City’s Radio City Music Hall. The back side of the panel has an interesting geometric pattern with shaded diamonds or argyle shapes.

Inspired by the iconic works of French Art Deco artists like Eileen Gray and Jean Dunand, this screen captures the dynamic spirit of the late 1920s and early 1930s in the United States. Its design, alongside pieces from leading period designers including Ruth Reeves, Paul Frankl, and Walter von Nessen, seamlessly complements the dining room’s color scheme, further enhancing its appeal and integration into contemporary interiors.
