Makers Challenge
My goal was to design a jewelry cabinet to fit into the high society of the roaring twenties. In this time period the Art Deco movement was at full swing. It was a decorative style that influenced art and culture in Europe and the United States.
The inspiration for the design came from both Jacques-Emile Ruhlmann 1879-1933 also the Art-Deco movement which was an international decorative style that ran from 1919-1939.
The size of the cabinet is 36 ½" wide x 26 ½" deep x 69" tall made out of four different species of hardwood and veneers: American Holly, Macassar Ebony, Gaboon Ebony and Bubinga Burl. With one outside drawer, 24-inside drawers and a hidden door compartment.
