Jean Royère, interesting 1940's French Side Board Art Deco / Cubist

About the Item

Very attractive small and narrow, cubist-style hallway sideboard from the 1940’s. It has an unusual door that opens at the corner. The body of this modernist / functionalist piece of furniture is veneered with light coloured (goat) parchment, framed by black-colored and whitewashed oak veneer. The designer plays here with the contrasts of black and white as well as with offsets of the elements top, sides and base. The wide-spread dark top was attached to the wall. The piece of furniture was originally in a Parisian apartment, which was furnished mostly by Jean Royère (1902-1981). In this respect, it makes sense to attribute this piece of furniture to Jean Royère. The Hotel Drouot auctioned this pieces in Paris in 1992.

  • Important Empire Early 19th Century Fauteuil by Jean-Joseph Chapuis
    By Jean Joseph Chapuis
    Located in Worpswede / Bremen, DE
    Despite his long life, very little is known about the general production of menuisier (chairmaker) Jean-Joseph Chapuis (1765-1864) and even less about his use of bent laminates, which must be viewed as the most advanced of its kind until the appearance of Michael Thonet’s work of the 1830s. The profound reverence for the classical world in enlightened circles in early 19th century Europe and the United States often resulted in the archaeological resurrection of the art, architecture, and design of ancient Greece and Rome. No chair employing the innovative technique of bending wood more boldly expresses this allegiance to the past than this armchair painted in le style antique and based on the ancient Roman sella...
