Description

Description:

This remarkable Art Deco sideboard, presumably crafted by the esteemed French designer Charles Dudouyt in the 1930s, is a true masterpiece of design and craftsmanship. The sideboard, with its bold geometric patterns and exquisite brass detailing, is a stunning representation of the Art Deco movement, making it a standout piece for any sophisticated interior.

Features:

Design:
This large sideboard embodies the essence of Art Deco with its strong geometric forms and striking visual appeal. The design features two doors adorned with graphic patterns that reflect the period's fascination with symmetry and bold lines. The central column of drawers is flanked by intricately detailed sculptures, adding depth and texture to the overall design.

Material:
Crafted from high-quality wood, this sideboard showcases the rich, warm tones and natural grain of the material. The wood's polished finish enhances its luxurious appearance, while the brass detailing adds a touch of elegance and sophistication typical of Dudouyt’s work.

Storage:
The sideboard offers ample storage space, making it as functional as it is beautiful. Behind the four doors, you’ll find spacious shelves that provide versatile storage options for a variety of items, from dining ware to decorative pieces. Additionally, the two central drawers offer convenient storage for smaller items, combining practicality with style.

Brass Detailing:
The sideboard is accented with exquisite brass hardware, including door pulls and hinges, which not only provide a beautiful contrast to the wood but also exemplify the high level of craftsmanship involved in its creation. The brass elements are subtly integrated into the design, enhancing the piece’s luxurious and refined aesthetic.

Condition:
This piece is in excellent original condition, with minor wear consistent with its age and use. The wood has been well-preserved, maintaining its rich finish and structural integrity. The brass detailing has developed a lovely patina over time, adding to the piece’s vintage charm and authenticity.

Dimensions:

Height: 40.95 inches (104 cm)
Width: 78.75 inches (200 cm)
Depth: 20.48 inches (52 cm)

Provenance:

Presumably by Charles Dudouyt, a notable French designer known for his distinctive blend of traditional craftsmanship and modernist influences. His work from the 1930s is highly sought after for its bold, graphic designs and meticulous attention to detail.

Styling Tips:

Place this sideboard in a dining room or living space where its bold design can be fully appreciated. Pair it with other Art Deco furnishings and decor to create a cohesive and glamorous interior.
Use the expansive surface to display a collection of decorative objects, such as vintage vases, crystal glassware, or sculptural art pieces, to enhance its visual impact.
Incorporate soft lighting, such as a pair of elegant table lamps or a statement chandelier, to highlight the sideboard’s intricate details and rich materials.

Conclusion:
This large Art Deco sideboard, presumably by Charles Dudouyt, is a truly exceptional piece that captures the glamour and sophistication of the 1930s. Its combination of bold geometric design, luxurious materials, and practical functionality makes it a perfect addition to any luxury interior. Whether used as a focal point in a dining room, living area, or hallway, this sideboard is sure to impress with its timeless elegance and artful craftsmanship.

Cancellations and Returns

Last updated: 24th March 2025

We want everybody’s Vinterior experience to be seamless, so both buyers and sellers can fall in love with pre-loved. We designed our Terms of sale to treat everybody fairly.

However, sometimes things don’t go exactly to plan, and you may need to cancel or return an order.

To prevent this, we encourage you to check listings, photos and descriptions carefully before you buy. If you aren’t sure about a piece’s condition, size, provenance or shipping, just ask; click Contact seller to get in touch. Always contact your seller first if you have any queries, at any point in your purchase.

Our buyers receive the same protection when buying from all our sellers, both professional and verified.

Can I cancel an order?

There are many reasons why you might need to cancel an order, and you'll often be entitled to a refund. To cancel an order, click Create cancellation on the order page.

If you cancel your order before it has been dispatched, you will receive a full refund - including delivery costs. However, if your item has been shipped, delivery costs will not be included in your refund.

Please note: orders of bespoke, personalised or made-to-order pieces cannot be cancelled.

Can I return an order?

We understand that sometimes a piece isn’t the perfect fit. So if you no longer want your order, our returns process will ensure it finds a new home fast.

The Vinterior Guarantee included with your purchase entitles you to 14-day returns - allowing you to return any item within 14 days of the delivery date (except in specific circumstances, detailed below).

You can return your order if...

It isn't what you expected

If what arrives isn’t what you ordered, you can open a return. Just send us some photo evidence that the listing was inaccurate, misleading or misrepresented your purchased piece, and you’ll receive a refund.

You change your mind

If you don’t feel a piece is right for your space, you can return it. Once you request a change of mind return, you’ll be responsible for shipping the piece back to your seller as soon as possible. Delivery costs are non-refundable.

It's damaged in transit

In the rare event that an item arrives damaged or defective, you have a full 30 days from the date of delivery to return it for a full refund.

If your purchase arrives broken, always let us know. If Proovia delivered the piece, we can raise an insurance claim on the seller’s behalf. Or, the seller can raise a claim with their chosen courier.

What can't I return?

Just as there are some orders you can’t cancel, there are some you cant return, too. Personalised, bespoke or made-to-order pieces are non-returnable, and non-refundable. Sellers may also reject your return if the item has been altered in any way.

Please note: pieces on our site are pre-loved, not new. They may show some wear and tear; this is not sufficient grounds for a refund, unless the seller has misrepresented the item’s condition.

Lastly, neither Vinterior nor our sellers are liable for any damages or loss sustained in transit via third parties.

I'm eligible for a return. Now what?

To initiate a return, log into your Vinterior account, then go to the relevant order page and click Create a return. In the return request, be sure to include all the details: the reason for your return, an in-depth description, and photos of any issues or damage.

How will I receive my refund?

Once the seller confirms they’ve received the item (in the same condition it was sent), we will send your refund to your original payment method.

All items are inspected on return. If the seller receives the return with damage they don’t recognise, we will not be able to process your refund and the seller may need to send the piece back to you. You will be required to cover these delivery costs.
