Pierre Chapo custom-made dresser, France, 1960s

Chapo, Pierre, Sideboards, France, 1960s

A unique, custom-made elm dresser with glass windows, by Pierre Chapo. This large, freestanding sideboard has two doors on both sides as well as on one end. The other end has four drawers. This piece was made for and used by Pierre’s son, Nicolas Chapo. It was used as a room-divider in his kitchen/dining room.

The design shows a strong resemblance to Chapo’s later model R28.
