With a sharply faceted top and geometrically braced facade, this L-shaped bar in solid elm reads like an architectural fragment reimagined for intimate domestic rituals. The patinated wood top gently flares and folds like origami in timber, its joinery a study in quiet complexity. From every angle, the piece balances mass and motion—a Brutalist silhouette softened by grain and gesture.

Likely crafted within a provincial French workshop aligned with midcentury chalet traditions, the bar evokes the functional minimalism of Alpine modernism and the rustic rigor championed by Charlotte Perriand. Its expressive X-form braces are both structural and sculptural, anchoring the form with a graphic rhythm that nods to vernacular carpentry and the tectonic honesty of postwar design.

JADA’s signature finish—a gentle bleaching that reveals the raw, tactile clarity of elm—heightens the presence of the piece, emphasizing the contrast between shadowed joints and sun-softened planes. The wood retains its organic character: undulating grain, subtle knots, and tonal shifts all preserved to honor its provenance.

Structurally sound and beautifully aged, the bar presents in excellent vintage condition. Minor textural variations and softened edges speak to decades of authentic use and preservation.

Equally suited to a minimalist alpine interior or a layered Brutalist space, this bar is both anchor and artifact—a sculptural monolith imbued with warmth, weight, and historical resonance.

Available for private acquisition. Inquiries from discerning collectors are welcome.
