Art Deco Distressed Wood TV Console with Antique Bronze Legs & Dual Drawers

Design & Inspiration

There is a particular honesty to a piece of furniture that wears its texture openly. This TV console draws from the Art Deco sensibility of the 1920s and 1930s — that precise moment when designers began to reconcile geometric restraint with material warmth. The body's cork-like, heavily textured surface in a warm honey-amber tone reads almost like fossilized wood grain: deliberate, tactile, and quietly commanding. Set low to the ground on four slender antique bronze tapered legs, the silhouette is unmistakably mid-century in its horizontality, yet the surface treatment connects it to something older and more elemental.

Materials & Craftsmanship

The carcass is built from Romanian solid redwood (dried to under 10% humidity for dimensional stability), then finished with a distressed technique that builds up layers of warm ochre and amber tones, mimicking the organic patterning of natural cork or aged burl veneer. The result is a surface that changes character as light moves across it — catching warmth in the afternoon, deepening to amber in the evening. The antique bronze metal legs are tapered and slightly flared at the foot — a detail borrowed from the best mid-century cabinetmaking — giving visual lift to what would otherwise be a very horizontal mass. Each of the two drawers is fitted with a circular antique bronze ring pull, flush to the drawer face, and lined internally with a deep burgundy red fabric, adding a note of richness that is only revealed on opening.

Dimensions & Details

The console sits at a media-appropriate height, its wide, low proportions ideal for placement beneath a wall-mounted television in a living room or bedroom. The two full-width drawers provide generous concealed storage for remote controls, cables, and media accessories. The clean back panel makes it equally effective floating against a wall or positioned with clearance in an open-plan space.

Handcrafted in Egypt

Every unit is handcrafted in Egypt by Brass & Wood artisans who apply the distressed finish by hand — no two pieces are exactly alike. The bronze hardware is individually aged, and the drawer interiors are hand-lined. This is a piece made with the intention that it will be noticed, studied, and kept.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is the surface texture made from?

The body is solid Romanian redwood finished by hand with a multi-layer distressed technique that creates a natural cork or burl-effect texture. It is not a veneer or laminate — the wood beneath is solid throughout.

Is assembly required?

Minimal assembly is required — the metal legs attach to the base with simple hardware. No specialist tools are needed, and the process takes under 15 minutes.

Can this piece be customized?

Yes. Brass & Wood offers customization of leg finish, drawer lining color, and overall dimensions. Contact our team to discuss your requirements before placing your order.
