Broken down into 10-year chunks that reach back over a century, this informative guide includes all of the movement's most essential facts and iconic pieces that have made Art Deco what it is today.
Rebecca Snowden, Interior Style Advisor at Furniture, said: "The Art Deco movement influenced the 20th century enormously, and many buildings inspired by the movement are still iconic landmarks today.
"Whilst the term Art Deco is known to many, very few actually know the history behind it. We created the Art Deco guide in celebration of a movement that influenced such a popular style and aesthetic. We hope more that this inspires more budding Art Deco enthusiasts."
