About the Item
Sideboard in Solid Elm, France, 1970
With its horizontal articulation and serene, architectural bearing, this sideboard conjures the quiet strength of rural modernism. The silhouette is elemental—a monolith softened by its warm, golden patina and the rhythmic repetition of its louvered panels. Light grazes the surface in long strokes, catching the subtle undulation of the hand-planed grain.
Attributed to Maison Regain, the piece belongs to a chapter of French design rooted in post-war reconstruction and a return to material honesty. Founded in the South of France during the 1960s, Maison Regain became a cult atelier renowned for its steadfast commitment to solid woods—especially elm—and to the enduring language of craftsmanship. Alongside contemporaries such as Pierre Chapo and Charlotte Perriand, Regain participated in a movement that rejected ornament in favor of purity, balance, and rural authenticity. Their work often evokes a monastic calm: furniture that lives with you, not simply beside you.
Crafted entirely in solid French elm, the construction speaks in the language of joinery: exposed edges, chamfered pulls, and plank-fronted doors that underscore the natural symmetry of the timber. The boards are bookmatched to amplify the flame-like figuring, giving the façade a quiet, organic drama. The three-door configuration reveals generous internal compartments fitted with adjustable shelving, offering utility without compromising its sculptural unity.
Wear consistent with age and use. Meticulously preserved by Jada to maintain its structural integrity while honoring its original patina.
The piece holds visual weight yet rests lightly in space—its floating plinth and gentle overhangs lending it a grounded elegance. It carries the presence of a functional altar: resolute, contemplative, and enduring.
Available for private acquisition. Inquiries from discerning collectors are welcome.

Brutalist Sideboard Oak, France, 1950s
By Charles Dudouyt
Located in Kaštel Sućurac, Splitsko-dalmatinska županija
This sculptural sideboard holds a quiet monumentality—its façade a study in balance, depth, and geometric relief. Two symmetrical doors are adorned with deeply carved concentric medallions, each centered within a bevel-edged square that projects from the surface like a wooden echo. Between them, five central drawers offer rhythmic contrast with their horizontal fluting, lending a linear tension to the rounded volumes flanking them.
In the style of Charles Dudouyt, this piece reflects the postwar fascination with medieval forms reinterpreted through modernist clarity. The carved motif—a recessed bull’s-eye framed in architectural moldings—recalls the rustic abstraction seen in French design of the 1940s and ’50s, where massing, form, and shadow did the work of ornament.
Carved from solid oak, the cabinet is grounded by splayed bracket legs that introduce a subtle kinetic lift. Their flared stance balances the robust body above, suggesting movement held in suspension. The drawer pulls are brass discs, minimal in gesture yet warm in tone, allowing the sculptural surfaces to speak.
Inside, the cabinet offers generous storage behind paneled doors, while the drawers glide with dovetail construction and timeworn ease. A visible fissure on one of the door medallions...
