About this seller
Private sellerProduct description
This large "Living" bookcase is an iconic creation by French designers Robert Guillerme and Jacques Chambron, produced by "Votre Maison" in the 1960s. This centerpiece perfectly illustrates the duo's sculptural and inviting approach, combining functionality with a refined Brutalist aesthetic. Crafted from solid oak, this imposing storage unit is distinguished by its intricately paneled doors and characteristic turned wood and metal handles. The structure incorporates a central niche adorned with glazed ceramic tiles featuring geometric and organic patterns, typical of the collaboration with ceramicist Boleslaw Danikowski. Its generous dimensions offer versatile storage space, including closed shelves and drawers in the lower section. The piece is in excellent condition, a testament to its original quality of craftsmanship. The oak has developed a natural patina over the decades, retaining all its character and structural integrity. This sculptural bookcase integrates ideally into a modernist or contemporary interior, lending a strong architectural presence. It will naturally find its place in a large living room or executive office, harmonizing with other pieces of mid-century French design.
