About the Item

French large buffet in the spanish style made circa 1970 or 1980. Four doors and four drawers. Elm and wrought iron. The doors are framed by wooden panels with vertical trim, and black metal handles add a touch of contrast. The sturdy structure rests on four thick legs. A fifth leg at the back of the piece provides added stability to this long sideboard. The front legs are connected by a crossbar that adds stability and visual harmony. A solid wood piece in a rich honey hue, with a visible wood grain that highlights its artisanal quality. Its doors feature natural finishes with vertical grooves that add textured details. The wrought iron handles, simple yet functional, lend an aged and authentic look. The surface has a light patina, highlighting the marks of time and previous use, which enhances its retro charm. The sturdy structure and artisanal details are a testament to traditional craftsmanship. This piece is a work of artisanal woodworking, partially crafted by hand. The finish is meticulous, with particular attention paid to straight lines and symmetry, while the overall style evokes a country or vintage aesthetic. Aranjou is a French furniture manufacturer that was active primarily between the 1950s and 1970s, known for the artisanal quality of its solid wood creations (mainly elm, oak, and broomwood). Aranjou furniture is part of the mid-20th-century brutalist and modernist movement, a style characterized by robust forms, simple geometric lines, and an emphasis on raw materials. Aranjou furniture is now highly sought after in the vintage market, where it is often presented as iconic French pieces of Mid-Century Modern design.
