About the Item

An oak desk made in France in the 1940s, attributed to Charles Dudouyt. The top is laid with a diamond pattern marquetry that reads clearly across the grain, and the oak has been refinished to a warm even tone that shows the figure of the wood. The piece stands on tapered legs of square section, a treatment Dudouyt returned to throughout his work of this decade, giving the base a graphic and almost architectural profile. Two leaves of 50 cm each pull out from either end, taking the top from 160 cm closed to 260 cm fully extended. Closed, it works as a desk for a study, a library or a home office. Open, it seats a full table of guests, so one piece covers both jobs. Condition is good throughout. The structure is sound, the joints are tight and the surface has been refinished. Wear is consistent with age and use. In stock and ready to ship from our workshop.
