Magnificent rare Charlotte Perriand sideboard edited by Steph Simon. This piece is made out of mahogany and comes with four drawers and two laminate sliding doors. It is reworked by certified restorers and comes from Casando, Mauritania in Africa. Charlotte Perriand is one of the most influential French designers and architects. Developing groundbreaking designs she started out working with steel, turning to her prominent rustic wooden drafts in a free form (Form libre) and arriving at a Japanese influenced style after 1940 inspired by her stay in Japan in that year. She early on met Le Corbusier and his cousin Pierre Jeanneret with whom she would collaborate closely throughout her life, as she did with Jean Prouvé.
