Sideboard by Frans van Praet for Belgochrom, Belgium, 1980's

About the Item

Sideboard by Frans van Praet for Belgochrom, Belgium, 1980's This semi-circular sideboard is made of darkened metal with a brushed surface, giving it a subtle patina. The curved front consists of multiple doors with recessed panels, framed by vertical supports that emphasize its structure. The top is smoothly rounded, following the overall form of the piece. Inside, the sideboard has multiple shelves, providing practical storage. The interior is finished in a contrasting dark color. The base features an open framework with a horizontal metal bar that mirrors the curvature of the piece. The design is industrial yet refined, with clean lines and a focus on materiality. The construction suggests a mid-to-late 20th-century origin, possibly influenced by Art Deco or industrial aesthetics. The metal surface has a warm tone, likely achieved through oxidation or a custom patina process. This piece would work well in both modern and classic interiors, adding a sculptural presence while offering functional storage. Frans van Praet (b. 1942) is a Belgian designer known for his sculptural and industrial-inspired furniture. He gained recognition for his work at Expo 1992 in Seville. Belgochrom, a Belgian manufacturer, specialized in high-end metal furniture, blending Art Deco and contemporary influences, particularly in the 1980s and 1990s.
