René Gabriel Patinated Oak Armoire France, 1940

About the Item

René Gabriel Patinated Oak Armoire France, 1940 This French oak armoire was designed by René Gabriel in the 1940s as part of a collection of emergency furniture created to furnish interiors after the war. It has acquired a lovely patina over time and features two storage compartments. This mid-century design is sustainable and gives new life to furniture that may have been discarded. René Gabriel was a renowned French designer whose style inspired many new designers after World War II. The prestigious Prix René Gabriel is still awarded to French designers for modern designs that can be mass-produced. Choosing used mid-century design is a sustainable option that gives furniture a second, third, or even fourth life. Mid-century design furniture is often high-quality and long-lasting, with a rich history that can be seen in its signs of wear. This armoire would make an excellent addition to any room, including living rooms, family rooms, screening rooms, or offices.
