About the Item

Form and function collide in this 'Thierry' stool model, a piece of accent furniture that is often underestimated. Designers define stools as jewels and statements in a room, and this rare model is perfect to add visual interest to any space. Designs by Guillerme et Chambron, the iconic French designer duo, are brilliant in their simplicity, as this pair exemplifies. These well-formed stools are dominated by the blonde oak construction that is immediately recognizable as a feature of Guillerme et Chambron's pieces. The seat's form, resembling the Japanese “torii” gate, has an unmistakable shape. The top reaches over the seat, forming small “wings”, that is quite unusual for stools in general. In a perfectly symmetrical arrangement, the legs are connected by two decorative stretchers running parallel to each other. The seats rest on a carved bottom that has rounded design elements on its sides. Executed entirely in solid oak, the structure’s versatile lines stand out. The concave seat breaks the rigour of the design and adds a mid-century flair. The craftsmanship of Robert Guillerme and Jacques Chambron is evident in the joinery technique, as this stool model has no visible tenon or mortise joints. Being functional as well as aesthetically pleasing, these stools are a great addition to set the tone of a space. Votre Maison didn’t make its mark in the history of French design without reason - as this pair illustrates.‎ Condition: In good vintage condition. Wear consistent with age and use.

Guillerme & Chambron, Pair of Oak Stools with Concave Seats, France, Mid-Century
By Guillerme et Chambron, Votre Maison
Located in New York, NY
Robert Guillerme studied design and architecture at the École Boule, graduating in 1934. After the Second World War he moved to Lille, in the north of France, where he decorated homes and designed furniture for the well regarded Rogier workshops. In 1948 Jacques Chambron left his work as a painter and decorator on the Rue Nollet in Paris, and relocated his family to join Guillerme. The two had met in 1940 while imprisoned by the Germans in East Prussia and bonded over, among other more obvious things, their shared passion for design. In 1949 the pair discovered Émile Dariosecq, a master cabinet maker who had a shop in the city, and who was willing to produce their designs. The three started Votre Maison. The association was destined to be as influential as prolific. Not only did Votre Maison produce over two thousand models during the later half of the twentieth century, it also left an indelible stamp on design of the 50s, 60s and 70s. The company’s output served as a model for a vast field of livable contemporaneous design. The soul of Guillerme et Chambron’s work was in the company’s name (“Your House"). Their focus was as keenly attuned to functionality—furniture’s use in daily life—as to the creation of innovative design. For the pair of designers the home was envisioned as a place where the family could live both comfortably and in aesthetic harmony. Robert Guillerme, who designed most of the work, possessed a limitless creative ambition, producing designs for everything from grand dressers and sideboards to the smallest elements of a space, such as pedestals, shelving, benches, and lighting. This steady output of beautiful furniture bucked convention not merely in the equal emphasis Guillerme placed on function and aesthetics, but in the almost paradoxical creation...
