Guillerme et Chambron "Charlotte" dining chairs for Votre Maison, wood, France, 1966, set of six.

This set of six "Charlotte" oak chairs showcases the distinctive craftsmanship of Robert Guillerme and Jacques Chambron for Votre Maison in 1966. Made from solid oak, the natural grain remains visible through a light transparent finish. The open-back design features a concave seat with rounded edges that fit seamlessly into the curved shoe of the backrest. The front and rear stretchers are rectangular, while the side spindles soften the structure, reflecting the organic form of the seat. The rear legs, crafted from cylindrical oak, taper elegantly into saber feet, emphasizing the chair's stability and refined aesthetic. The chairs are armless, allowing for flexibility in various interior settings. Removable fabric cushions provide additional comfort.

Guillerme and Chambron, working from their workshop in Lille, France, became known for their unique approach to furniture design. Their collaboration with Émile Dariosecq in 1949 established the Votre Maison company, focusing on original, functional pieces for everyday life. Guillerme’s architectural background informed his design philosophy, favoring durable, high-quality materials like oak, leather, and ceramics. The chairs in this set reflect the harmony and balance that defined their work, blending simplicity with craftsmanship to create timeless, practical furniture.

The set can be split. The dining chairs can be sold singularly.
