Marius wardrobe natural oak

Designed by Pierre-François Dubois, the Marius chest of drawers draws inspiration from the maritime world, offering a reimagined and stylised take on sailboat hulls. Both natural and elegant, it will bring a warm, distinctive touch to your interior. The chest of drawers is available in a natural oak finish, petrol blue, pink, or light grey. Whether you are looking for a seaside-inspired piece of furniture or a sophisticated statement piece for your living room, this lovely Marius chest of drawers is sure to meet your expectations.

An original chest of drawers with dynamic lines inspired by sailboats

The oak Marius chest of drawers offered by Hartô is the seventh creation by designer Pierre-François Dubois for the brand. True to the designer’s philosophy—bringing simple objects to life while highlighting their function and material—this Marius chest of drawers impresses as much with its apparent simplicity at first glance as with the details and gentle, unexpected aesthetic revealed on closer inspection.

The first thing that catches the eye is the symmetrical lines, following an invisible axis that divides the piece in two vertically, where the drawer pulls are fixed. Forming triangles layered over one another, these lines create a sense of momentum—the physical expression of an upward movement. It feels powerful, like wind filling a boat’s sails. In fact, it echoes the hull itself—the part that cuts through waves without ever breaking. This robust, built-to-last quality is also reflected in the choice of materials. MDF (here, oak-veneered) is the ideal compromise, combining lightness, strength, and durability. A non-gloss varnish and a deliberately natural tone allow the material to be seen as raw, pure, and charming as it can be. Without artifice, the wood follows the rhythm dictated by the geometric shapes, simply enhanced by the golden drawer pulls.

The Marius chest of drawers: as practical as it is beautiful

The Marius chest of drawers, by Pierre-François Dubois for Hartô, features three drawers that open with small golden pulls aligned with the symmetry axis of the piece’s design. Made from brushed brass, they are as sturdy as the chest itself. A detail that adds a lively touch, they make it easy to integrate into a sophisticated seaside-inspired interior. With a depth of 40 centimetres, this Marius chest of drawers—with its long, wide drawers—lets you store all your belongings and keep everything close at hand. The drawers are fitted with soft-close dampers to reduce noise when closing and help prevent damage. Thoughtfully designed, the mechanism of this Marius chest of drawers is a guarantee of durability. This discreet piece, with its timeless style, will support you over the long term in all your interior projects. With their rounded edges, the drawers give this chest of drawers softly contoured lines, blending seamlessly into your décor and drawing the eye without clashing with the rest of your accessories.

The perfect balance of strength and elegance

The legs of the Marius chest of drawers are made from solid oak. This material choice is a smart one, as it offers a sturdy base capable of supporting the overall structure, while remaining discreet enough not to detract from the object’s raw beauty.

The Marius chest of drawers offered by Hartô is available in several colours, so you can choose the one that best suits your interior. On Moodntone, in addition to the natural, bohemian-inspired finish, you will also find petrol blue, pink, and light grey versions of the Marius chest of drawers designed by Pierre-François Dubois.
