Guillerme et Chambron Bench with Wood Tile and Upholstery, France 20th Century

Creator: Guillerme et Chambron - Votre Maison
Offered by: H. Gallery

Description
Form and function collide in this bench, a furniture piece that is often underestimated. Designers define stools and benches as jewels and statements in a space, and taking practicality into account, this rare model is perfect to add visual interest to any environment.

The iconic French designer duo’s design is brilliant in its simplicity. This well-formed piece is dominated by its blonde oak construction that is immediately recognisable, with the incorporation of upholstery adding a unique and luxurious element to the piece. Executed entirely in solid oak, the structure’s versatile lines really stand out. The asymmetrical 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 bench has no visible tenon and mortise joints.

Being functional as well as aesthetically pleasing, this bench is 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 bench illustrates.‎
