Art Nouveau Hand Carved Door: An H.J.Nick Original Fine Art Design

Our historically inspired door designs are not reproductions. Each is an original design by award winning artist H.J. Nick that has been built using the same hand and materials that were used to build the originals.

This beautiful Art Nouveau style hand carved door was designed by H.J. Nick with our art department at ArtFactory.com. It is an incredible example of the artistry our master carvers. Art Nouveau was inspired greatly by the natural world, not just the creatures, but also the flowing lines and intricate patterns. The very recognizable "whiplash" motif, seen in many Art Nouveau pieces, including this door, is an adaptation of the flowing lines of nature. Flowers, animals and plants were all used for inspiration and artists of different countries also pulled design inspiration from history such as designs of the ancient Romans, Viking carvings, and Japanese wood block prints.

The Art Nouveau style transcended mediums; it was found not only in paintings and sculptures, but also in jewelry, architecture, furniture, and home décor. There was a belief that everyday things could also be art. This art style, though short lived (it was popular from around 1890 to 1915), was one of the most influential styles of the 20th century. The Arts and Crafts movement began during the same time period, both being a reaction to the Industrial Revolution and the mechanization of labor, and the lines and philosophy of Art Nouveau influenced many artists involved in the Arts and Crafts movement.

Art Nouveau Hand Carved Door Finish Details

Every product from ArtFactory.com is designed by and built under the supervision of award winning artist H.J. Nick. A product is not signed by H.J. Nick until it has been found to meet all world class fine art criteria.

The meticulous finish has been done in age old technique, using a 23-step hand rubbed process. We begin with fine hand sanding, and infused open grain hand applied stains. That puts the finish in the wood not just sprayed on it. This allows for the fine natural wood grains to show to perfection. There are then 20 additional steps requiring the application of wax, oils and lacquers with curing times between each process. This method is performed on all furniture and door wood surfaces inside and out. This tried and tested finish detail is required in the making of a one-of-a-kind, family heirloom quality product that meets world class investment quality standards that will stand the test of time. This process is the only way with little maintenance and the simple process of cleaning with oil will allow for a beautiful natural patina that will make this door more beautiful over time.
