CO91981-Cascade-Console
Reminiscent of console tables from the Art Deco period, the Cascade Console was designed by Shah Gilani, ASFD. Art Deco was an influential visual arts design style that first appeared in France just before World War I and began flourishing internationally from the 1920s thru the 40s. It took its name from the Exposition Internationale des Arts Décoratifs et Industriels Modernes (International Exposition of Modern Decorative and Industrial Arts) held in Paris in 1925. It was an eclectic style that combined traditional craft motifs with Machine Age imagery and materials. The style was often characterized by rich colors and bold geometric shapes. The Art Deco movement flourished during the interwar years when rapid industrialization was transforming culture. One of its major attributes was an embrace of technology. It has been defined as an assertively modern style that emphasizes symmetry rather than asymmetry, and the rectilinear rather than the curvilinear. During its heyday, Art Deco represented luxury, glamour, exuberance, and faith in social and technological progress. Robust metal construction of the Cascade Console Base allows it to support a heavy top without shaking. Top options include black granite and thick clear glass. The base is offered in a variety of finishes. Custom sizing is available.
