Product description
Belgium / 1905 / pair of nightstands / De Coene / Geo Verbanck / Oak, Copper, Marble / Art Deco / Art Nouveau
Magnificent and rare pair of Art Nouveau nightstands or bedside tables. Designed and crafted by De Coene Kortrijk with artwork from the Belgian artist Geo Verbanck in the 1920s. These cabinets in solid oak feature beautiful hardware and on each door a copper plaquette by Verbanck. The nightstands have grey marble tops and a wooden pull-out tray underneath. Each bedside table has one door with a storage space behind it and a drawer. The set is in good original condition with minor wear consistent with age and use, and a small damage to one of the marble tops. A real eye-catcher in your home.
Geo Verbanck was born in Ghent on 28 February 1881. He studied art at the Royal Academy of Fine Arts in Ghent and the Royal Academy of Fine Arts in Brussels. Geo Verbanck gradually became better known, partly through his participation in national and international exhibitions. In 1941 Verbanck was awarded the state prize "Grand Prize of the Plastic Arts" for his entire oeuvre. Verbanck is considered one of the last classical sculptors and "le poète de l'élégance". His education at the academies in Ghent and Brussels allowed him to develop his own sensitive figurative style in which a classical purity, harmony and an intuitive sense of the right dimension were paramount.
