About the Item

Carved Armoire in Bleached Oak, France, 1940s - After Charles Dudouyt A sculptural heirloom echoing the geometry of French provincial ritual forms Monumental yet delicately resolved, this French armoire from the 1940s stands as a testament to the enduring artistry of provincial woodworking. Its commanding elevation is offset by a softened palette and rhythmic carvings—bringing sacred geometry into a domestic scale. The twin doors are adorned with concentric rondels—six per panel—hand-carved in deep relief, evoking the cosmic balance of medieval and folk iconography. Between them, a central pilaster is fluted with pyramid-carved detailing, adding vertical structure and symbolic gravitas. The sides continue the framed panel language, while the apron is gently scalloped, resting on curved feet that lift the volume with a sense of lightness. Crafted in solid oak and bleached to a matte, mineral tone, the piece reveals every plane and shadow in quiet detail. The iron escutcheons and original hinges retain their darkened patina, offering a discreet contrast to the warmth of the wood. Likely the work of a regional French workshop influenced by interwar or early 20th-century interpretations of Gothic revival, this armoire straddles rustic function and ceremonial form. Structurally sound and gently restored, it shows age with dignity—tool marks, softened joins, and the kind of proportional poise that defies trend. An ideal anchor in bedrooms, galleries, or interiors rich in texture and heritage. Available for private acquisition. For further details, provenance notes, or private viewings, please contact our curatorial team.
