The story
This beautiful 1940s Art Deco chest of drawers attributed to Maurice Dufrène imparts a cosy, glowing mood to any space. The warm amboyna burl wood remains looking healthy and smooth some eighty years later. Gilded carved feet and solid brass handles adorn the front of the commode, and one of the signatures of Maurice Dufrène during his lead at La Maîtrise. This commode feels delightfully modern for the period and charmingly vintage now. It has been fully refinished, and is in great vintage condition.
About Maurice Dufrêne
Maurice Dufrêne (1876-1955) was a French decorator and designer, a founding member of the Société des Artistes Décorateurs in 1901. After working for Meier Graefe's La Maison Moderne in the Art Nouveau period, he directed La Maîtrise, the design studio of the Galeries Lafayette, from 1921. His furniture of the 1920s shows Art Deco refinement in fine veneers and lacquer. Collectors seek signed pieces of that decade.
