The refined 2-29 armchair, created and industrially produced in 1954 at Móveis Artísticos Z by H. Schicker and Zanine Caldas, is a sophisticated armchair that combines elegance with innovation, featuring a plywood frame and No-sag spring upholstery to ensure comfort and versatility for versatile and varied interiors. Its distinctive design includes a two-piece construction—separate backrest and seat—highlighted by clean, straight lines and wooden arms. The careful use of wooden caps instead of chrome screws reflects a commitment to simplicity and a rational production process. Perfectly combining simple, timeless style with the possibilities of modern machinery, the 2-29 armchair is a piece that uses innovative processes applied to wood and the resistance of materials such as plywood—the main industrial technique used to produce mass-produced furniture using machines and conceived as an exclusive model originally designed by H. Schicker.
