Sideboard, solid elm, France, 1950s/1960s
Made by the skilled hands of a French cabinetmaker, this organically formed cabinet embraces both the inherent qualities of the wood and a distinctly artisanal sensibility. Its silhouette remains resolutely organic: the edges are free-form, retaining a live, slightly irregular contour that evokes the original outline of the timber. The surface is particularly striking. Rather than being planed to uniform smoothness, it has been worked with a gouge, producing a dense field of shallow, rhythmic depressions that animate the surface and catch the light unevenly. The overall language recalls the work of the French designer-sculptor Alexandre Noll.
