Wall Liquor Cabinet by Frédérique Domergue, One-of-a-kind, Contemporary

About the Item

This unique piece is both a cabinet and a painting. The functional part of the bar cabinet is fully concealed on the side with compartments that open with a push. The top compartments can be used to hang stemware. Bottles can be stored in the bottom while the middle boards can be used to mix or serve cocktails. The interior features birdseye maple veneer. When closed, the cabinet is an abstract canvas whose surface consists in oxidized metal panels (bronze leaf on the base and middle, zinc leaf on top). The liquor cabinet features hooks on the back that can be used to hang it from the wall. Dimensions : L 100 cm x H 200 cm x D 20 cm // L 39.37 in. x H 78.74 in. x D 7.87 in. One of a kind. Available now. Over nearly 20 years, French artist Frédérique Domergue has created a unique body of work based on combinations of metal and rare wood species. She learned traditional woodworking and metalworking techniques from master artisans, and quickly developed her own skillful approaches, especially metal cladding which has become her hallmark. Frédérique Domergue uses thin sheets of metal that hug the contours of the wood (which she sometimes sculpts beforehand) to create a "second skin". The artist creates astonishing effects by transforming metal into a material that appears supple and elastic. She draws on her extensive expertise with a wide range of metals (bronze, zinc, titanium, steel, etc.) to achieve surprising results. She sometimes uses oxidation techniques that lend sheets of zinc or bronze warm, sensual hues that shift with the light. Her entirely hand-made pieces take on a patina over time as the unexpected alchemy of the materials reveals an array of subtle, distinguished tones. The passion that drives her, the curiosity that propels her toward new worlds and the care she brings to finishing her pieces have enabled Frédérique Domergue to produce a singular oeuvre that allies excellence, innovation, esthetics and audacity.

    Bumper is a sideboard with three doors. By combining two materials (the pink copper of the doors and the deep black of the oxidized zinc top with its bluish glints) and two textures (the bumpy appearance of the doors and the smoothness of the top), the artist has created a study in contrasts that changes with the light. Each of the three compartments has a shelf. Dimensions : L 150 cm x H 55 cm x D 45 cm // L 59 in. x H 21.65 in. x D 17.7 in.
