French Art Deco Lounge Chair with Walnut Veneer, France 1930s (sold)






























French Art Deco Lounge Chair with Walnut Veneer, France 1930s (sold)
No other movement in decorative arts and architecture was ever able to celebrate urban life in such a glamorous and luxurious manner as Art Deco. But one country, in particular, wears the Art Deco crown: France. Because unlike much Art Deco elsewhere, including the US, French Art Deco furniture tended to be hand-crafted rather than mass-produced.
There is a clear decorative feel to this lounge chair with indulgent shaping and a sophisticated, sartorial attitude. Not only is the quality is apparent, but also the obvious influences of the Art Deco movement. There are interesting lines and angles from all sides of the elaborate wooden structure, starting from the tapered hexagonal back. The reclined back serves as a frame for the upholstery, where the wood is only visible on the top. The sides are embraced by the arms that connect directly to the back to continue their sloping angle towards the front. The smaller elements in the front have a sharper angle that brings the chair into balance as it contrasts to the reclined position of the back. The sharp edges highlight the rectangular frame, especially from the sides. The base is similarly shaped with clean lines and four short, sculpted legs where the hand made quality is especially apparent. The overall shape is reminiscent of club chairs, but the touch of Art Deco is unmistakeable. The veneered walnut’s grain and pattern is just as much a decorative element as the frame itself, enriching the design with its various colour variations.
The Art Deco movement revolutionized interior design and furniture in this style is hugely popular among connoisseurs even today. French furniture makers embraced this style, and in the years between the World Wars, produced some of the most exciting and innovative Art Deco furniture the world had seen, including this exceptional lounge chair.

Art Deco furniture reflects a moment when design shifted toward confidence, comfort, and modern living. Emerging in the interwar period, the design movement embraced strong silhouettes, rich materials, and a sense of quiet luxury that felt both progressive and grounded. Club chairs became a key expression of this approach, designed not only to look substantial but to invite use. This chair fits squarely within that tradition, balancing architectural clarity with a deeply comfortable presence.
This club chair is defined by its generous, rounded silhouette, with thickly upholstered arms that curve forward and frame the seat in a protective, almost enveloping way. The deep seat and softly padded backrest create a sense of weight and comfort, while the proportions remain carefully controlled so the form never feels heavy. Upholstered in an earthy-toned brown fabric, the surface adds depth and softness to the overall appearance, reinforcing the chair’s tactile appeal. Subtle shaping at the arms and back gives the piece a sense of flow, while the low stance and solid proportions keep it visually anchored. The short, carved wooden feet give the chair a grounded presence, ensuring sturdiness. Together, these elements create a piece that feels both intimate and confident, designed as much for long, relaxed use as for aesthetic impact.
This club chair captures the essence of Art Deco comfort, where refinement and functionality coexist. Its timeless shape and inviting feel make it as relevant today as it was when first made. A strong example of early 20th century seating, it speaks to a period when furniture was designed to be lived with and be passed down through generations.

This upholstered armchair is rooted in the European Art Deco movement of the 1930s. It was a period defined by confidence, structure, and a belief in modern luxury. Art Deco design emerged between the wars as a response to earlier ornament-heavy styles, favouring clarity of form, strong geometry, and refined materials. Furniture from this era often balanced comfort with a distinctly architectural presence, drawing inspiration from both classical proportion and the clean lines of modern industry. This chair reflects that mindset perfectly, presenting a strong and confident silhouette that feels intentional rather than decorative.
The form of the armchair is solid and grounded, built within a strong wooden frame that gives the piece its architectural weight. The arms are outlined by smooth and sharply defined wood, creating a sense of enclosure that feels both protective and confident, while the backrest softens the geometry and adds comfort. Upholstered in a warm, powdered pink fabric, the chair gains a tactile softness that contrasts with the firmness of the frame. The upholstery is soft but controlled, with clean planes and subtle curves rather than excess padding. The seat is deep and inviting, designed for practical use, while the proportions remain compact enough to feel composed in a room. The wooden elements frame the upholstery and emphasize the chair’s structure, reinforcing its Art Deco character. Every detail works together, from the block-like legs to the precise transitions between wood and fabric, creating a chair that feels deliberate, balanced, and quietly strong.
As a piece, this armchair captures the lasting appeal of Art Deco furniture: comfort shaped by discipline and elegance rooted in form rather than ornament. It works equally well as a statement chair in a living room or as a refined accent in a bedroom or study. Its presence offers visual weight without heaviness and comfort without excess, in true Art Deco fashion.

This armchair is a compelling embodiment of the French design duo Adrien Audoux and Frida Minet. Their design philosophy was centered around a commitment to accessible furnishing made out of natural materials that suit the rhythms of modern life. Active in mid-20th century France, they played a crucial role in shaping post-war design. Drawing inspiration from modernist movements, they steered the view of design towards a more functional, refined, and streamlined aesthetic.
This chair showcases excellent craftsmanship, care, and precision, visible in the smallest details of the design. The woven seat and backrest, composed of finely braided natural fibres, offer both support and comfort, gently adapting to the shape of the body for a relaxed resting experience. Unlike most chairs, this unique design does not utilise the typical four legs - instead, the structure flows seamlessly into a wide curve that comprises the frame and is the visual highlight of the chair’s form. The armrests appear to be curving down and back in two smooth lines, partially creating a supporting base. The structure of the base is further enforced by a stretcher between the two pieces of bentwood, enhancing stability. Another interesting design detail are the cylinder supports at the front where the arms and base meet, which act as a reinforcement while still maintaining harmony with the rest of the piece. This clever element helps to create a scooped base that supports the entire seat. The bent wood creates a fluid connection, giving the seat a sense of suspension - a light, almost floating presence - with the open surface of the seating and back further enhancing the airy characteristic of the armchair. Though the back rail is a separate piece between the two large curved elements it visually continues the line of the arms, creating the sense of a frame that gracefully encloses the seat.
The impressive silhouette of the armchair is defined by the choice of solid bentwood and woven rope as materials, and techniques that require expert skill, all poured into the final result to create this graceful form. The timeless appeal of this piece complements a wide range of interior styles, capable of transforming any environment with its organic appearance in both form and medium.

The Art Deco movement - emerging in the 1920s and reaching its peak in the 1930s - celebrated elegance, luxury, and meticulous craftsmanship, while forever leaving its mark on design history. Known for its bold geometric patterns, streamlined forms, and high-quality materials, Art Deco design drew influence from industrial innovation and the glamour of the Jazz Age. Pieces from this period often exhibit clean lines, rounded edges, and richly textured fabrics that invite touch and appreciation. These characteristics perfectly fall in line with the design of the club chair, originally named the “fauteuil confortable" (comfortable armchair).
Club chairs, often recognised by their deep, rounded backs and wide armrests, originated in French men’s clubs in the early 20th century. They were created for cosiness and relaxation, typically featuring full-body upholstery and sturdy frames that allowed club members to enjoy sitting for extended periods of time. This Art Deco club chair reflects its rich history by embodying the the opulence and artistry of its design movement, while simultaneously pursuing comfort. The piece stands out through its dark blue mohair fabric, and distinct rounded shape. The chair’s sweeping backrest and generously curved armrests give it an invitingly sculptural presence, with its clean lines being striking from all angles. The plump silhouette is emphasised by its rich colour and texture, exuding an effortless sense of luxury. To complement the look, the plush mohair used for the upholstery adds a tactile richness and warmth that stays true to the Art Deco commitment to durability and high-quality materials. The short legs complete the piece with a wooden touch, balancing the dominating shape of the body.
Perfect for those who value style and quality, this armchair brings a bold, timeless charm to any room. The club chair’s blend of historical influence and modern appeal make it suitable for a variety of interiors, whether you’re aiming for vintage glamour or modern refinement. With its silhouette and rich, versatile colour, this piece combines style and comfort to infuse a space with Art Deco elegance.

This mid-century French armchair combines a visually stunning structural body with expert caning technique and high-quality materials.
As with the UK and much of Europe, there was something of a design renaissance in France in the 1950s, due to developments in materials and technology after the war. In France, designers were often also architects, whose focus on functionality and quality resulted in sculptural models, such as this armchair. This model is all about the gorgeous teak structure and the cane panels. Pure, sleek forms, free from artifice or decoration characterise the aesthetic; a style that is commonly referred to as reconstructivism. A reconstructivist design builds upon prior, deconstructionist models and techniques, but adapts them to classic themes and structures, with the goal of creating works of genuine emotion and significance. This armchair in particular recalls the chairs of Swiss architect, Pierre Jeanneret’s designs for Chandigarh in India.
The body features octagonal mesh cane webbing, which is an elegant material that enhances quality and complements the teak wood. Cane webbing is strong enough to support the weight of a sitting person and flexible enough to bend around the sharp corners of wooden frames. Production of cane webbing requires a lot of labour, attention and craftsmanship and every production step involves repetitive careful hand selection. The cane panels are original and in great condition, testifying to the outstanding quality of this armchair and the skill of its maker. ~H.

The post-war period in France saw a wide array of inventive and creative contributions to the history of design. What made this particular period so prolific and influential is that French designers’ creations were woven into the fabric of French identity. These designers and ‘ensembliers’ were skilled at bringing together the many artisanal trades for which France has long been famous, thus communicating a broad picture of French skill and style.
As this lounge chairs and footstool set shows, they put their rigour – but also their imagination – at the service of furniture. While the 1960s saw the emergence of colourful styles and eras such as pop art and the mobi boom, this set preserves the understated elegance of the mid-century modern movement. Aside from some floral wallpaper and curtains, the colours of the 1960s were rather subdued, and earthy colours were the most common. French furniture and interior designers of the mid-century are known as masters of elegantly organic forms. As such, this set is characterized by clean lines and a free spirit. With their fully upholstered bodies supported by metal structures, the design is focused on sinuous curves, especially on the contoured arms. The unexpected curves in combination with the velour upholstery of the chair and footstool are very effective in creating a stylish, elegant look. The deep stitches accentuate the shapes and forms. The most unusual element however, are the splayed black lacquered legs with brass caps. Their thin, straight lines are perfect to counter the volume of the bodies, while the materials accentuate each other in perfect harmony.
Though many mid-century French designers may not have the name recognition as some of their Scandinavian counterparts, they were integral to developing a modern aesthetic in Europe. The appreciation for their contribution is still growing today making outstanding pieces like this lounge chair and footstool set highly sought after.

The duo of Robert Guillerme and Jacques Chambron and their company, Votre Maison denote a landmark of French mid-century design history. Their focus was as keenly attuned to functionality as to the creation of innovative design. For the pair of designers, the home was envisioned as a place where the family could live both comfortably and in aesthetic harmony. Robert Guillerme, who designed most of the work, possessed a limitless creative ambition, producing designs for everything from grand dressers and sideboards to sculptural armchairs like this model.
This chair’s aesthetic is elegantly expressed through clean lines and geometric precision, while creating a harmonious balance between form and function. The oak construction showcases the skillful artistry of the design duo while highlighting great balance of lines. The careful execution of the oak frame, with the gently curved and sculptural armrests is the most apparent visual feature of the chair, while the more subtle details, such as the back frame and upholstered seat and back cushions, make this model visually interesting. The very subtly curved armrests serve a double purpose: on one hand functional, on the other one aesthetic. The chair promises a comfortable and relaxed seating experience, while visually breaking the continuity of the outer line. The soft seat and back cushions, upholstered in a cream fabric, provide plenty of comfort paired with the slightly reclined backrest. This armchair truly exemplifies the thoughtful design and timeless appeal of Guillerme et Chambron’s work, blending natural materials with mid-century modern aesthetics.
Not only did Votre Maison produce over two thousand models during the latter half of the twentieth century, its output also served as a model for a vast field of liveable contemporaneous design. This steady output of beautiful furniture bucked convention not merely in the equal emphasis Guillerme et Chambron placed on function and aesthetics, but in the almost paradoxical creation of a consistent style that was as staid as it was arresting.

Bridge Chairs - Fauteuil Bridge - from France are generally lightweight, often part of a set of matching chairs and bridge table. They were originally designed in the late 1930s for ladies for leisure activities, such as for games of bridge, afternoon tea, and gossiping. As this bridge chair exhibits, the models are stylish, well-made, and comfortable.
This solid oak “Fumay” is part of a dining group designed in 1965 by the world-famous French duo, Robert Guillerme and Jacques Chambron. As the version with arms, this chair’s frame is quite distinctive; the decorative elements on the backrest and armrest show an interesting curvature that is characteristic of the designer duo. These sculptural elements paired with the tapered legs are carved out of the blonde oak in an artistic way, testifying of the quality that the duo’s company, Votre Maison became famous for. The stretchers arranged between the legs at different heights in the fronts and sides are another clever detail. The genius of the design lies in these details that no matter how different, still complement each other. The sleek look is completed by the upholstered cushion in light bouclé fabric, that pairs beautifully with the colour of the blonde oak.
The French designers’ models are considered as a reference among the furniture of the 1950s through the 70s. This dining chair from the 60s gives a visual explanation why: the proportions, the subtle decorative elements, and the quality of woodworking is of the highest-quality, and the result is an immediately recognisable look that will never go out of style.

About the designer:
Robert Guillerme graduated in 1934 from the École Boule where he excelled in architecture and furniture design. After the Second World War he moved to Lille, in the north of France, where he decorated homes and designed furniture for the well regarded Rogier workshops.
In 1948, Guillerme was joined by his long-time friend, decorator Jacques Chambron in Lille. The following year Guillerme and Chambron met master cabinetmaker Émile Dariosecq, owner of a woodworking shop and the company Votre Maison was born. Together, they defined and imposed a new furniture concept. Thanks to their distinctive creativity, originality, and quality, the Votre Maison quickly became well-known.
The Votre Maison marked the history of French design. Guillerme drew the furniture designs while Chambron played the part of salesman, welcoming and advising clients. The power duo was complemented by Dariosecq, whose workshop took charge of the manufacturing. Together, they defined new furnishings concepts. Well-crafted chair back, polished wood and thick cushions make the reputation of their armchairs and sofas. Votre Maison continued to produce furniture right into the Twentieth Century, with Jacques’ son Hervé Chambron, a designer and graduate of the Ecole Boulle, having taken the reins in 1983.

This upholstered armchair reflects the quiet confidence of Scandinavian design from the 1930s, a period when modern ideas were being absorbed into more traditional forms. Swedish furniture of this era often balanced restraint with comfort, favouring clear silhouettes and honest materials over ornament. Rather than chasing novelty, designers focused on proportion, usability, and longevity, creating pieces that felt modern yet familiar.
This chair sits comfortably within that moment, bridging early modernist thinking with the warmth expected in domestic interiors. The armchair is defined by its solid wooden frame, which gives structure and presence without overpowering the soft upholstery. The straight, architectural arms frame the seat and back in a way that feels deliberate and grounded, while the slightly reclined backrest invites relaxed sitting. Upholstered in a dusty pink fabric, the chair gains a subtle softness that tempers the firmness of the wood. The fabric adds depth and tactility, catching light gently and emphasizing the slightly rounded edges. The proportions are compact but generous, making the chair feel supportive without appearing heavy. Every element, from the thickness of the cushions to the clean transitions between wood and fabric, suggests careful craftsmanship and an understanding of everyday comfort.
As both a functional seating piece and a design object, this armchair works easily in a range of interiors. Its calm colour palette and balanced form make it timeless, appealing to those who value character, quality, and subtle design. This is a chair meant to be lived with, offering comfort first while quietly carrying the design language of its time into the present.
