Active in the interwar period, he founded his own firm, "La Gentilhommière," in Puteaux, and distinguished himself with a rustic-modernized, highly structured style with powerful volumes. He worked primarily in solid oak, with sculpted finishes, turned legs, and decorative details borrowed from Romanesque or medieval art. His sideboards, armchairs, and tables are particularly prized for their unique character, combining noble craftsmanship and geometric modernism. His work is currently enjoying renewed interest in the vintage design market, particularly in Europe and the United States. A Charles Dudouyt sideboard is therefore a key piece for any collector, combining strength, balance, and elegance. This piece has an attribution mark,
