Extendable Oak Dining Table by Guillerme et Chambron, France 20th Century
-
Description
With a robust build and a smart extension providing extra space on the top, this model is in many ways representative of the French duo Guillerme et Chambron’s artistic ideals.
The design shows Robert Guillerme and Jacques Chambron’s unique visions in the table’s decorative and functional details. Compared to the duo’s other models, this table is more pared down, relying mostly on the natural appeal of the oak, and its decorative legs. Unlike in most mid-century models, ornamentation was an important part of the duo’s creations, and while apparent, they were never overwhelming. This balance kept the pieces’ elegance, like in the case of this dining table.
Furthermore, this table is full of character and offers expressive and sculptural functionalism. Guillerme et Chambron’s table designs are well-known for their distinctive appearance and multi-functionality; this model in particular shows how decorative design and functionality were equally important for the designers, being as sensitive to the use of furniture in everyday life as to the creation of innovative design.
