A striking pair of Norman Bel Geddes steel bachelor chests dating to the 1930s, embodying the streamlined elegance and Machine Age optimism of the Art Deco era.

Crafted from painted steel and fitted with iconic oversized solid brass pulls, the chests balance industrial utility with refined design. Their architectural proportions, softened corners, and restrained detailing create a silhouette that feels both substantial and remarkably modern nearly a century later.

The contrast between the painted steel surfaces and warm brass hardware gives the pair a distinctive presence, while the rounded edges temper the otherwise geometric form. The result is furniture that feels simultaneously functional, sculptural, and unmistakably of its time.

Whether used as bedside chests, flanking a sofa, defining an entryway, or anchoring a bedroom, the pair offers the versatility and sculptural presence that have made Norman Bel Geddes' designs enduringly collectible.

Circa 1930s.
