About the Item

Guillerme et Chambron for Votre Maison, set of six 'Charles' dining chairs and table, solid oak, fabric, France, 1960s Lovely dining set designed by duo Guillerme and Chambron in the 1960s. The Charles chair, designed in the 1960s by the French duo Guillerme et Chambron and produced by their company Votre Maison, is a striking example of post-war French modernism. The chair speaks the language of function: solid oak, robust joints, a thick upholstered seat - nothing frivolous, nothing hidden. The elements are elevated by a distinct sculptural touch. The legs taper to a soft point, echoing both traditional craftsmanship and modern geometry. The stretcher bars form a subtle crisscross beneath the seat, which adds both structural integrity and visual rhythm. What makes the Charles chair especially notable is its backrest. A single, undulating crossbar floats between two upright posts, a clear example of the duo’s affinity for carved detail within functional constraint. The profile is almost playful, slightly anthropomorphic, inviting the sitter to interact. It is a small flourish in an otherwise utilitarian frame, and it gives the piece its personality. This dining table, crafted from solid oak, is the work of renowned French design duo Jacques Chambron and Robert Guillerme. Exemplifying their signature style, the table seamlessly blend angular forms with robust construction. The foundation features crossbar connections, boasting a dual purpose: providing stability and adding a dynamic element to the design. The sides of the legs are meticulously carved, where the clean lines are disrupted by concave cut-outs with integrated round joints. Additional leaves allow for extension to accommodate more guests. The tabletop itself showcases a visually captivating geometric pattern, intricately inlaid with oakwood. The French designer duo Jacques Chambron (1914-2001) and Robert Guillerme (1913-1990) started their production postwar. Robert Guillerme studied design and architecture at the École Boule and graduated first in his class in 1934. Meanwhile, Jacques Chambron graduated from the School of Applied Arts in Reims. During the Second World War, the two met in a stalag, a Prussian prisoner camp, while being imprisoned by the Germans in East Prussia and started a great friendship based on their intense and deep passion for interior design. In 1948, Chambron resigned from his job as a painter and decorator on the Rue Nollet in Paris to move to Lille, in the North of France and join Guillerme. A year later, the two met cabinetmaker Émile Dariosecq, who was the owner of a workshop close by. It was during this meeting, that they decided to create their own company. They named it “Votre Maison”, meaning “Your Home”, which became the soul of the company. With this, they wanted to create pieces that focused on functionality combined with a beautiful design useful for daily life, by which they created a worldwide reputation. Most of the furniture designed by this duo shows a strong character and has a great expressive woodwork. The three of them divided their work equally. Overall, Guillerme worked as a designer, Chambron as a commercial, and Dariosecq’s workshop manufactured the pieces. Throughout their career, ‘Votre Maison’ produced over two thousand models, leaving a lasting mark in the world of design.
