Art Deco radiator covers
Geometric glamour: exotic veneers, sunbursts and chevrons, stepped forms, fluting and lacquer.
For custom work, Deco is about surface and silhouette. Veneered or inlaid doors, fluted panels, stepped casings and geometric grilles carry the style, and they are especially effective in bars, powder rooms and entries.
Radiator covers hide old heaters while adding a decorative grille. Many of the best patterns come from elevator screens, Gothic grilles and Art Deco vents.
