Totally Original Charles Dudouyt Easy Chair

1900 - 1920
Description

This chair is a great example of the work of Charles Dudouyt. Its originality is superb as well as its condition. The colour sets this apart from the rest and the size makes it a perfect useable chair for a number of uses. The rush seat is still in amazing condition and shows attractive signs of wear to the paint. The design shows clear influence from the Art Deco period and its smooth edges give this a really powerful decorative charm.

Charles Dudouyt (1885-1946) started his career as a woodworker, learning crafting art from his father. He innovated the Art Deco and Modernist eras with his creative approach to furniture design. After studying at the École Boulle in Paris, he honed his skills as a designer. He focused on natural materials, carving them in simple, geometric forms and incorporating decorative elements or carved details.

Upon joining, every dealer agrees to a strict 9-point code of conduct. While issues can occasionally arise, our dealers typically resolve them swiftly and directly with the buyer. In fact, since our founding in 2002, Sellingantiques has only had to step in to help resolve an issue on roughly five occasions—a true testament to the quality of our dealers and their dedication to your happiness.

The Sustainable Choice

Antiques are the ultimate green purchase. By choosing historical pieces over newly manufactured goods, you completely eliminate the carbon footprint of modern mass production while preserving exceptional, timeless craftsmanship.

FAQs

Mid-twentieth-century French modernist seating, often associated with designers like Charles Dudouyt, blends traditional folk design with structured, geometric forms. These pieces feature substantial wood framing, turned decorative accents, and natural rush weaving.

These armchairs are typically constructed from solid oak or beech wood, combined with hand-woven natural rush or straw for the seat panel. The joinery relies on classic woodworking techniques such as mortise and tenon joints.

Authentic examples display heavy solid wood construction, distinct turned posts or spherical finials, and naturally aged patination on both the timber and rush seat. Construction details include hand-turned elements and substantial weight.

Position the armchair as a sculptural focal point in a living room corner, study, or bedroom. The warm timber and tactile rush texture create depth when contrasted against clean neutral walls or modern minimalist decor.

Dust the wood frame regularly with a soft cloth and apply clear beeswax polish occasionally to preserve the finish. Keep the rush seat dry, vacuuming gently with a brush attachment to remove dust from between the weaves.
