1940s French Oak Sideboard by Gaston Poisson
A French oak sideboard by Gaston Poisson, dating to the 1940s. The long, low form is detailed with three hand-carved panelled doors, each worked into a geometric relief that gives the piece its distinctive architectural character.
The craftsmanship continues across the parquetry top and through the interior, where a decorative inlaid border runs along the shelving. Three doors open to generous storage, with an internal drawer and original keys completing the piece.
Sculptural without feeling heavy, the sideboard is a beautiful example of French mid-century craftsmanship, where functional furniture becomes an exercise in material and detail.
