This beautiful chest of drawers, “model 812,” was designed by the French designer André Monpoix and produced by Meuble TV in the 1960s (the designer's label can be found in the first drawer). This classy piece of furniture features three drawers on the front, the first of which is divided into compartments. The cabinet rests on a chrome base. The brushed aluminum handles have a V-shape, the trademark of this designer. Both the exterior and the interior of the drawers are finished with a high-gloss walnut veneer. The cabinet is in absolute splendor with very minor signs of use.
André Monpoix (1925-1976) was a French designer and interior architect. He belonged to the young generation of decorators of the 1950s. He graduated from the École Supérieure des Arts Décoratifs in 1949. In 1953, he founded his own firm and began a long collaboration with furniture manufacturer Meuble TV. Two years later, together with Alain Richard, he became the exclusive designer of the brand and offered furniture with contemporary lines, combining wood and metal. In 1962, he received the René Gabriel Prize. Among other notable achievements in his career, he also designed furniture for Artifort and Huchers Minvielle.
