Charles Dudouyt's work was characterised by its simplicity and the use of natural materials, such as oak, beech, and walnut. He favoured simple, geometric forms and often incorporated decorative elements, such as inlaid marquetry or carved details.

This side chair is a lovely example of Dudouyt's work and mid-century French craftsmanship, featuring a bold, sculptural design where geometric shapes and organic curves harmonize seamlessly. The frame is crafted from rich, warm wood, and boasts a unique juxtaposition of angular lines balanced by the gentle curves of the circular backrest. The carved pattern of the backrest, part of Dudouyt's signature style, mirrors this structural contrast by displaying a delicate fusion of organic and geometric form. The fluidity of the carving draws attention to the wood, highlighting both the grain, and the stain of the material, resulting in a design feast that calls for the appreciation of the artisan woodworking, as well as for the wood itself.

A perfect fusion of rustic and refined aesthetics, this chair exemplifies Dudouyt’s ability to create furniture that feels both contemporary and timeless, with an emphasis on craftsmanship and natural beauty. Whether placed in a modern interior or a more traditionally styled space, this wooden side chair remains a testament to French design of the 1940s, offering an enduring visual impact and lasting elegance.
