This vintage Art Deco desk and chair set, dating to the 1930s–1940s, is a striking example of the iconic waterfall style, defined by its rounded edges and dramatic bookmatched walnut veneers. The desk features a bold, highly figured grain pattern across the top and sides, creating a symmetrical, almost flame-like visual effect that is characteristic of the era. Its classic kneehole design is complemented by a combination of drawers and cabinet storage, all accented with streamlined metal hardware that reinforces the period aesthetic. The accompanying barrel back chair pairs beautifully with the desk, featuring a sculptural wood frame and original leather upholstery that has developed a rich, warm patina over time. Its curved back and integrated arms echo the soft, rounded lines of the desk, making the set feel cohesive and thoughtfully designed. Together, they capture the essence of early 20th-century American furniture, when Art Deco design brought a sense of modernity, elegance, and craftsmanship into everyday pieces.

Condition: Condition is consistent with age and use. The desk shows some visible wear to the top, including surface marks and areas of finish loss along the edge. The chair retains its original leather upholstery, which shows notable wear throughout, including scuffs, discoloration, and surface marks from use. There is also a tear along the back seam of the chair, along with general wear to the piping. Despite these imperfections, the set remains structurally solid and presents well overall with a nicely aged patina.
