Music cabinet c. 1925 - 1930

"Music Cabinet" is a striking example of Art Deco design created by Jules Bouy around 1925-1930. The cabinet features a tall, slender form with a sleek, geometric design that emphasizes verticality. The piece is constructed from wood with contrasting finishes and metal accents, and showcases the clean lines and geometric patterns that are characteristic of the Art Deco movement. Its streamlined design and bold, geometric shapes reflect the influence of modernism. This piece was made by Jules Bouy (1872-1937), who was a French furniture designer known for his distinctive use of materials and forms. The cabinet's elegant simplicity and refined details make it a coveted example of Art Deco furniture. Today it resides in the Minneapolis Institute of Art.
