Carved Oak Accent Chair, Europe 1930s (sold)




























Carved Oak Accent Chair, Europe 1930s (sold)
This armchair has a charmingly peculiar look that makes it a perfect accent chair. It is familiar and cosy, yet also unique in its appearance thanks to the creative overflow that characterized early 20th century European furniture design.
The distinctive look mainly relies on the carved arms’ curve that is reminiscent of historic styles, but also of traditional folk styles. This chair’s frame is quite distinctive even beyond the arms; the straight lines carved out of the dark oak wood are quite elaborate, especially the way in which the arms connect to the stretchers between the legs. Meanwhile, the backrest is visually “unattached” to the seat which creates an impression of weightlessness, which is further amplified by the light upholstery. The chair has an overall flow to it, which is a result of the arms and the bent backrest with a curve that flows down to the back legs. This dynamic is broken by the stretchers and front legs that have a much straighter structure. The result is an expertly balanced look with just enough decorative elements to set it apart as an accent chair. As an accent armchair, this model is guaranteed to stand out thanks to its organic material and the outstanding craftsmanship.
The look is completed by the upholstered seat and back, covered in a light, textural fabric that goes beautifully with the dark, smooth oak. The designer of this chair drew from the beauty in nature: natural shapes and materials, while keeping a perfect balance between functionality and aesthetics.

This pair of dining chairs is designed in the manner of Charles Dudouyt, one of the most distinctive figures in French decorative arts of the interwar period. Dudouyt’s work is often celebrated for its rustic charm, and masterful handling of wood, bridging tradition with the evolving aesthetics of Art Deco and modern design.
This pair embodies early 20th century qualities through its grounded presence and confident use of materials. This design is all about the wooden structures. The discreet joinery and seamless construction reflect the French emphasis on detail and quality, elevating the chairs beyond just function to objects of aesthetic value. The chairs are made from solid oak in a rich, dark stain that accentuates the natural grain to create subtle warmth and depth. Adding to their appeal are the geometric backrests, which provide firm support and a subtle architectural detail to the design. The carved elements on the sides showcase the Art Deco interest in geometric adornments. While dining chairs are generally more utilitarian types of seating, this pair still manages to look cosy and warm thanks to the woven rope seats. Moreover, each leg features carved and rounded detailing, lending rhythm and visual weight to the structures. This play between solidity and ornamentation is characteristic of French designs of the era, where pieces were not only functional but also a statement of craftsmanship and artistic individuality.
The essence of early 20th century French design is beautifully captured by these chairs. Functional yet sculptural, rustic yet refined, this pair stands as an enduring testament of the striking balance only master woodworkers are able to create.

By the latter half of the 20th century, European furniture design had become an arena for bold experimentation and a renewed fascination with material honesty. The Brutalist movement, though often associated with architecture, influenced furniture makers who explored volume, geometry, and the natural character of wood and other materials to create designs that were both functional and sculptural.
This oak corner bench exemplifies the Brutalist ethos through its striking form. Crafted from solid oak, it features a tall, slatted backrest composed of vertical planks, each slightly angled to provide both visual rhythm and ergonomic support. The corner design creates a natural sense of enclosure, inviting conversation and closeness while optimising space in a room. The bench rests on tapered, splayed legs that lighten the strong presence and introduces a subtle mid-century refinement to its otherwise architectural silhouette. The dark wood’s warm grain and natural patina are left visible, reinforcing the Brutalist emphasis on rawness of materials and celebrating the inherent beauty of solid timber. The geometry of the back contrasts with the softly curved seat edges, striking a balance between strength and human comfort. Beyond its practical use, this bench functions as a statement piece that transforms a corner into an intimate space. Its quiet strength and handcrafted character make it more than mere seating - it is a reflection of a design period unafraid to combine utility with expressive structure.
Ideal for a dining nook, entryway, or modern rustic interior, this bench brings presence to any space. For collectors and designers alike, the bench is a testament to postwar Europe’s exploration of honest forms and enduring materials, offering a blend of sculptural impact and everyday livability.

Bas van Pelt (1900–1945) was a Dutch furniture and interior designer whose work combined traditional craftsmanship with the principles of early modernism. While Van Pelt's creative work was primarily dominated by the Hague School, this armchair is the result of his more mature design period, characterised by natural materials, in order to create a friendly and inviting appearance that combines the warmth of solid oak with the distinctive texture of woven rush.
The construction of this model is simple at its core, but thanks to certain details, it is a playful representation of early Dutch modernism. While made of solid oak, this armchair has an open feel to it thanks to the horizontal spaces on the back that divide the three rush panels. The tall, slightly inclined backrest is framed by two straight wooden uprights, creating a strong vertical outline that contrasts with the more fluid shape of the armrests. The curved lines of the arms contrast nicely with the straight lines of the frame and clearly show wonderful craftsmanship. Each armrest extends outward in a gentle wave, giving the chair a particularly individual character. The rush weaving on the back adds textural interest, bringing the appealing roughness of nature to the design. Its closely arranged vertical strands create a warm, sandy surface, beautifully complemented by the oak's rich brown colour and the similar tone of the upholstery. The legs and stretchers are simple in their design, serving a primarily structural role and allowing the rush weaving and the wooden construction to stand out. The legs are connected by a gently curved wooden rail beneath the seat, while the rear supports continue naturally from the backrest. Thanks to the well-chosen proportions and the combination of natural materials, this armchair provides great comfort while maintaining a remarkable appearance.
Bas van Pelt's progressive designs were, in many ways, ahead of his time. The Dordrecht-born designer's furniture models are quite rare, with examples preserved in the collection of the Stedelijk Museum Amsterdam. Furniture pieces like this easy chair stand out through their unique textures and materials, as well as their classic charm. Its generous backrest and comfortable seat make it particularly suitable for a living room, library or reading area, where the craftsmanship can be appreciated from every angle.

This so-called “kurulstol” or kurul chair, is an iconic model by Danish designer, Henning Kjærnulf. The Kurul chair is an ancient folding chair, originally a folding stool with straight or curved legs. Among the Romans, in addition to being an ordinary utility chair, it was symbolically linked to officials, often within the judiciary.
This armchair combines the traditional kurul structure with a rounded and curved appearance, with an upholstered seat and backrest that gives the historic look a modern edge. The oak frame is carved and sculpted in an unmistakeable way, showing the skills of both the designer and the manufacturer. The body is composed of two slats of wood of equal length in the front and back, fastened together in a saltire formation (resembling the letter X) which are extended up at the top and back to form the armrests and the backs as well. The seat, upholstered in soft sheepskin, is stretched between the front and back slats connecting the two. Kjærnulf removed the folding function of the historic design, giving his model a more stable, organic look. This impression is further enhanced by the solid oak, which is carved with great precision into straight and curving lines. The rich sheepskin melts these carved and straight lines together, contrasting to the oak’s smoothness. While the historic kurul chair was often decorated with intarsia, this model only showcases subtle decor elements, such as the charming sculpted mark in the front with a flower (or the sun) carved into the wood.
While the kurulstol is a Renaissance classic originating from ancient Rome, thanks to Kjaernulf, Scandinavian modernism remains at the core of the design. Kjærnulf’s designs are easy to spot in a crowd thanks to his originality, making his pieces like the razorblade chair and this kurulstol eternally unique. This chair was manufactured by EG Kvalitetsmobel in Denmark during the 1960s.

About the designer:
Danish mid-century designer and architect, Henning Kjaernulf, is somewhat of a mystery. A lot more is known about his designs than Kjaernulf himself. His wooden designs, crafted to perfection, speak for themselves. Kjaernulf mainly designed for the Danish manufacturers EG Kvalitetsmøbel, Nyrup Møbelfabrik, and Vejle Stole Møbelfabrik. The latter produced the designer’s well-known teak extending dining table design. The historic archives of the Danish municipality, Stenlille, reveal the history of Nyrup Møbelfabrik, mentioning Kjaernulf’s architectural designs for the company’s factory, referring to him as an architect based in Odense, Denmark.
Kjaernulf’s works reveal quality craftsmanship throughout, featuring clean Danish modern era lines with sculpted edges and shapes. The unique shapes, like his razorblade chair backrests, distinguish the designer from other Danish mid-century designers.
In light of how sought after his dining sets and lounge chairs are, it remains a mystery why so little is known about the designer. The curious background of Kjaernulf if anything, adds more charm to his pieces. ~H.

The European perspective on cabinetmaking is exceptional, and wood was an omnipresent material in mid-century modernism. This sumptuous rounded armchair features the immediately recognisable touches of Modernism: excellent materials, craftsmanship, and elegantly curved shapes.
This armchair holds all the characteristics that define Berga Möbler’s style, from the playful softness, to the organic sophistication. The chair is slightly tilted backwards by the tapered front legs. The curved and rounded backrest and armrests are a few elements that define the elegance of the chair. Slightly inclined towards the backrest, the armrests provide an excellent seating experience, making the chair a wonderful choice for any contemporary living space. Not only this, but the back is tufted with two large buttons that give the pieces a pleasant and welcoming appearance. The upholstery's texture adds to the visual appeal. It enhances the tactile experience, making it a delight to sit on. The frame is constructed from high-quality wood, ensuring durability and sturdiness. Furthermore, apart from being structurally integral, the legs add a touch of mid-century modern flair with their outward bend and smooth finish. The design of this chair possesses an elegant homely curviness, an aesthetic balance that is only seemingly easy to achieve, but this armchair exudes it.
Crafted with precision and finished with attention to detail and care for the aesthetic dimension, this armchair stands the test of time thanks to both its visual and material quality.

Derived from the French "brut", meaning raw, Brutalism describes the architectural style that emerged in the mid-20th century, featuring minimalist constructions that showcase bare materials and structural elements over decorative design. It originated post–World War II, when low-cost housing and government buildings were composed of mainly raw, unrefined materials. Similarly, in furniture design, Brutalism inspired creators to follow the same look of deliberate simplicity, honesty and strength.
This armchair stands as evidence why many European architects succeeded at the craft of furniture design; the precision of the structure and the rush weaving is evident at first glance, showing great geometric order. Driven by function, the designer’s focus was evidently on practicality, structural stability, and construction in favour of these principles. The straight lines and the absence of excess decoration are very typical of the era’s designers, who saw possibilities in the aesthetics of modernist design and materials. This beautiful chair’s simplicity and honest look combined with brutalist influences enhances the exceptional craftsmanship. The woven back and upholstered seat gives the piece an organic and cosy impression, all while staying very functional. It is perfect to bring natural charm to a minimalist space. The oak has a beautiful patina due to its age, feature that enhances even more its charm.
Its bold, unapologetic aesthetic resonates with those seeking a departure from the sleek minimalism of recent years. This armchair serves as both an homage to the past and a testament to the timeless allure of Brutalism.

Wim den Boon was a Dutch designer and architect associated with the post-war modernist movement in the Netherlands. After studying interior design at the Academy of Fine Arts in The Hague, he worked alongside artists like Hein Stolle and Pierre Kleykamp to contribute to a number of important post-war interiors, including projects for Schiphol Airport. Den Boon later established himself independently in The Hague, where he designed furniture characterised by restrained compositions, careful spatial treatment, and a preference for unadorned everyday materials.
Influences from De Stijl and Scandinavian modernism remained visible throughout his work, particularly in the balance between strict structure and warmth. This lounge chair reflects that sensibility through its reduced oak construction and tactile ponyskin upholstery. The frame is composed of cylindrical supports and straight horizontal rails, creating a clear geometric outline around the upholstered body. The proportions are low and generous, giving the piece a relaxed, grounded posture. The seat and backrest form a wide lounging space upholstered entirely in champagne-coloured ponyskin. The material introduces a textured surface, giving the otherwise minimal form a sense of movement and depth. Still, the oak remains visible throughout the design, outlining the silhouette and through its slim slats it prevents the chair from appearing overly heavy. The tilt of the backrest softens the strict geometry and contributes to the lounge-like comfort of the piece.
Den Boon was part of the generation of Dutch designers who helped shape post-war modernism in the Netherlands through a restrained and architectural approach to furniture. This chair is proof of his talent. It feels architectural in structure, yet tactile and warm in appearance, reflecting the balance that made Dutch modernist furniture so distinctive during the period.

René Gabriel was instrumental in shaping the French design landscape during the mid-century era. His emphasis on quality craftsmanship and the use of noble materials like oak has left a lasting imprint on the world of furniture design. His work was closely associated with practical, well-constructed furniture that combined traditional woodworking techniques with the simplicity of modern design.
This set of three dining chairs, created in the manner of René Gabriel during the first half of the 20th century, reflects these principles through the restrained construction, carefully considered proportions and emphasis on the natural beauty of wood. The design of these chairs boasts a functional, well-thought-out structure, crafted from quality oak. The openness of the chairs is highlighted by the four slender horizontal slats of each backrest and the slender legs. The backrests have a gently curved outline, with the wooden uprights extending down to form the rear legs. The seats are made from wooden slats fixed within rectangular frames, allowing the grain and colour variation of the oak to remain visible throughout. At the heart of this set is the use of dark oak, a material known for its durability and longevity, as well as its unique charm. The wood has a rich brown tone with beautiful variations across the seats, backrests and frames, adding warmth to the otherwise geometric design. The simple construction and careful details give the set a cohesive look, with the repetition of the horizontal wooden elements creating a particularly attractive effect when the three chairs are arranged together.
Wood has never gone out of style, and pieces with an emphasis on a natural look continue to hold a particular appeal. These chairs are equally striking standing alone or as part of an interior with a medley of styles. Their organic colour makes them easy to adapt to a variety of settings, while their form allows them to sit comfortably around a dining table without appearing visually heavy.

Renowned for their innovative, high-quality furniture, Robert Guillerme and Jacques Chambron combined elegant form with straightforward functionality to create their distinctive designs. The French duo established their company, Votre Maison, in 1949, working alongside master cabinetmaker Émile Dariosecq, whose workshop was responsible for manufacturing their furniture. Guillerme drew the furniture designs while Chambron played the part of salesman, and together they developed a recognisable style.
This oak armchair from the 1950s visually represents the very reason Votre Maison significantly influenced French design history, combining natural materials with the comfort and craftsmanship associated with the duo's work. The piece features a sculptural oak frame, a hallmark of the duo's style. The wooden structure rests on four sturdy legs, with the front legs extending upwards to support the carefully shaped armrests. The armrests are carved with great precision to serve a double purpose: an aesthetic role and a functional one. The legs are similarly sculpted, with subtle changes in their thickness and shape adding visual interest to the construction. The backrest has an open slatted wooden structure, concealed by a generously upholstered cushion that rises above the seat. The gray back cushion is adorned with tufted buttons arranged in horizontal rows, adding depth to the textured grey upholstery. The thick padding and slightly reclined position provide additional comfort. A broad seat cushion completes the chair, with its upholstered body resting within the oak structure. Like most of their designs, this chair model displays a beautiful contrast between the wooden frame and the elegant fabric. Thanks to the ergonomic curves and thick, comfortable seat and back cushions, this chair is perfect for cosy lounging.
Guillerme et Chambron's work not only represents the fusion of traditional craftsmanship and modern design, but also exemplifies the distinctive French mid-century aesthetic they helped shape. Their emphasis on quality craftsmanship and the use of noble materials like oak has left a lasting imprint on the world of furniture making. Whether placed in a living room, library or reading corner, this armchair offers an inviting seating experience while introducing the recognisable character of Votre Maison furniture into an interior.
