Art Deco Tropical is a very rare breed that is world renowned...with roots in Miami Beach in the 1930's...the 1920's showed some inspirations of what the 1930's would bring...but nothing like between 1935 and 1940...where the height of the deco modern ideology was built as hotels lining Ocean Drive from 5th Street to 14th Place...where architects from all over the world were clammoring to be chosen to help develop the iconic piece of the Atlantic Ocean at the Southern end of the Florida coastline...a oasis that embodied a distinct architecture characterized by reductive design...light smooth surfaces...rounded edges...and sparing geometric decoration...Art Deco and Streamlined are terms synonymous...they are separate facets of stylke moderne...showcased by lavish decorating...a Dorothy Draper design allure...extravagent colorism...robust tropical florals...abstracts...and a elaborate ornamentation...it is a style still today exclusive to that treasured land of oceanfront...where collectors and lovers of tropical barkcloth seek to create a little bit of South Beach in their own homes...
This offering is for ONE Pillow/Cushion of a premier barkcloth...I have 3 available sold individually...a handsome darkest raspberry ground...highly textured...thickest and nubbiest that barkcloth comes...tropical flowers take center stage amidst ostrich feathers...which were a very popular decorating novelty of the period...shades of sweet grays and whites...neoclassical components meet Art Deco with cocoa and cream swags...bold lemon yellow...chartreuse...amd citron...foliage in beautiful jadeite aqua greens...even a fab minty seafoam...with dark chocolate accents...
