The piece mixes straight lines and turned elements with gorgeous angles, achieving a stunning silhouette from whatever point of view.
Our team has a thesis, but the authorship is still unconfirmed through archival sources. Besides the angled turned legs, one of the most memorable details is the spheres at the tips of the front legs – that also work as a rest for the hands, very useful for seating or getting up in low seat heights like this.
The seating is a single piece of thick black natural leather inclined to accommodate the body perfectly supported by structured firm backs — a fortunate encounter of form and function.
Among the icons, there is a whole universe of craftsmen and small companies that embraced modern design, with Brazilian materials and forms — well-designed and quality furniture, still waiting to be known by the public.
This unrestored and in a very well-condition armchair. Wood restoration is included as a courtesy from our experienced restoration Workshop.
