A striking example of Belgian Brutalist design, this “Modena” highboard by Frans Defour was produced in the 1970s by Defour, Belgium. Made out from solid stained oak, it features a bold graphical parquetry pattern across the doors that emphasizes the richness of the wood grain. The upper compartment opens with a drop-down door to reveal a bar area, while two hinged doors below conceal a shelved interior for practical storage. With its geometric façade, warm oak tones, and robust build, the piece embodies the Brutalist spirit of material honesty and sculptural form, making it both functional and timeless—a true collector’s item that adds architectural character to any interior.
