Solid wood sideboards in cherry, oak and walnut

Customize your solid wood sideboards

The "enfilade" (French word) is defined as a sideboard with at least 3 doors. Its size and storage capacity make it a majestic and imposing piece of furniture in your dining room. Maison GONTIER offers enfilades in wood sourced exclusively from French sustainably managed forests. Oak and cherry are the 2 types of wood we use for our enfilades. Oak has been the symbol of French forests since Louis XIV, and its reputation for robustness and durability is well established. Cherry is a gleaned wood with a wonderfully fine feel, smooth grain and soft, slightly pink veining. 

On this page, you'll find enfilades with 3 that we can adapt to your dimensions if you wish, or even make a bespoke enfilade to your specifications.

Personalize your enfilade with our color chart and decide for yourself the best finish for your interior.

Contemporary, Louis Philippe, Louis XVI Directoire: what style for my "enfilade" ? 

Sideboard in solid cherry and oak

The Louis Philippe style is an opulent style with distinctive stylistic elements such as moldings, curves and sabots. With this style, you'll have a piece of furniture with beautiful wood sections where traditional French cabinetmaking comes to the fore.

With the more refined Louis XVI or Directoire style, the lines remain straight and taut. Embellishments include diamonds, fluting and brass sabots. Our enfilades are available on legs or pedestals to keep out dust.

From the regions of France, our TRADITION collection also features the country or country chic style. Depending on the finish you choose, the enfilade will be more rustic with a uniform wood shade, or "charming" with light colors such as creamy white or pearl gray.

Finally, contemporary style is represented by the SIENNA and STELLA collections. The former is an oak collection with natural, chestnut brown, gray or black shades. The ornamentation: handles, escutcheons and knobs are in black iron, evoking the industrial style. The second STELLA collection is available in oak and cherry, which is rare for a contemporary collection. The straight lines of the frame are very much of our time, but the curves on the drawers and handles create a happy marriage of tradition and modernity. The 4-door enfilade pictured here perfectly reveals the beauty of this contemporary 4-door enfilade.

 

For sleek Scandinavian enfilades, we suggest you take a look at Mon Petit Meuble Français, our sister brand, with beautiful creations by Parisian designer Eric Gizard. All furniture is also 100% French-made.
