French Art Deco Cast-Metal Etagere by Siegel, 1930s

$4,200.00

A rare example of early 20th-century French retail design, this étagère captures the spirit of the Art Deco era. Crafted in the 1930s by the renowned Parisian shop-fitter Siegel, the piece features two cast-metal columns with finely turned finials supporting rectangular glass shelves that emphasize lightness and verticality.

Originally designed for displaying wares in Parisian boutiques and cafés, the slender cast-metal structure and floating glass shelves create a sense of openness while remaining firmly grounded in function.

Well suited for books, barware, or sculptural objects, it reads as both practical and sculptural—an increasingly rare and collectible example of French commercial design.

DIMENSIONS: 23.75"W x 11"D x 57.75"H

ORIGIN: France

PERIOD: 1930s

MATERIALS: Metal,Glass

CONDITION: Overall in good vintage condition. The cast-metal frame shows areas of oxidation and surface scratching consistent with age and use.
