The super rare furniture similar to the dining room New York from the Art Deco period from the 1928. It is an original piece of furniture from the Deutsche WK Möbel. Designed and realized by Bruno Paul. The piece of furniture was made in high-quality Walnut wood, Makasar wood and rosewood design. The base is designed with a surrounding brass edge.
Bruno Paul, architect, furniture designer and caricaturist, begins his artistic training in Dresden. In 1891 he moved to Munich to successfully complete his studies at the Academy of Arts.
Bruno Paul founded the Munich Workshops for Art in Crafts in 1897 together with Bernhard Pankok, Hermann Obrist and Richard Riemerschmid. Bruno Paul's furniture is inspired by Henry van de Velde. His metal objects have simple shapes. From February 1897, Bruno Paul provided cartoons for the magazine "Simplicissimus". The publisher Albert Langen and the painter Thomas Theodor Heine founded a satirical magazine in Munich in 1895. By 1905, several interiors for exhibitions as well as the waiting room at Nuremberg Central Station were built. Bruno Paul became head of the arts and crafts school in Berlin in 1907 and worked as an architect in Berlin from 1907 to 1908. More buildings will follow. Bruno Paul is the founder of the German Werkbund. Bruno Paul is represented at the 1914 Werkbund exhibition in Cologne with three buildings: the Yellow House, the Wine House and the Brewery. Bruno Paul becomes director of the School for Fine and Applied Arts in Berlin. In the next few years he gained international recognition, particularly with the construction of the Macy's department store in New York. This piece has an attribution mark,
