72-057 Art deco set,
This 1/72 scale set consists of a twoseater sofa and two chairs. There are also 4 prints of carpets from the era
Art Deco was a popular style movement from 1920 to 1939 that had an impact on the decorative and applied arts, in architecture, graphic, industrial and interior design, as well as in the visual arts and clothing fashion. .
The movement was in a sense eclectic, i.e. a mishmash of many different style and art movements from the early decades of the 20th century. The main characteristic of Art Deco, as well as distinguishing it from the more organic Art Nouveau, is the embrace of technology in addition to traditional motifs. The style is often characterized by rich colours, geometric figures and lavish ornamentation.
