If you are looking for the most unique and coveted rare pair of large scale armchairs for you or your client, look no further, this pair of Sergio Rodrigues 'Gio' three-position adjustable lounge chairs are the best examples of this rare and coveted design you can find, and we will explain why below. First, this pair was sourced in Rio Brazil and exported to the U.S. where we recently restored them. We took a photo of the chairs in Brazil prior to shipping, then took more photos of them with the original fabric in our showroom prior to reupholstery. The unique attribute on this pair of 'Gio' club chairs are the removable Rosewood pegs which allow the chair to adjust up or down in three different seating positions to customize the amount of recline to make these chairs the perfect and more comfortable relaxation tool you can imagine. Secondly, the Gio design is incredibly rare - much more common is the Vronka design which is similar but fixed and not adjustable. Of Sergio's designs, the 'Gio' design is one of the most sought after by collectors and art collectors - and having a pair that was sourced in Brazil with beautiful visible age, demonstrating its authenticity and beauty. Third, as you can see in the photos, we restored these in incredible fashion - with luxurious and very expensive Edelman Shearling. We kept the hides in their natural shapes and upholstered the chairs as such giving it an organic and natural pattern. It took 22 shearling hides to complete these two large scale chairs, the cost of the hides and reupholstery was over $5,000 however the results are the most unique and special 'Gio' chairs you will ever find. Last but not least, the frames were fabricated from Brazilian Jacaranda (Rosewood) with incredibly beautiful deep Rosewood grain - Brazilian Rosewood is an endangered species so furniture can no longer be produced with it making it more valuable and special, especially for collectors and investors in art and design. The signature look of the Gio lounge chairs are the finial (peg) inserts that hold the adjustable seats in position; which are also in Jacaranda Rosewood. On the seat frames are three Rosewood receptacles on each side which the pegs insert into. Incredible details, exquisite craftsmanship and design, and luxurious materials all in this pair of Sergio Rodrigues Gio chairs...

If you are looking for the most unique and coveted rare pair of armchairs for you or your client, look no further, this pair of Sergio Rodrigues 'Tonico' lounge chairs are the best examples you can find, and we will explain why below. First, this pair was produced under supervision by Sergio in his own factory in Brazil - but - exclusively for the US market, distributed for a very short time by Brazilian Interiors in the late 1960s and early 1970s. In the gallery of this listing is a photo of the Brazilian Interiors catalogue that displays this model and confirms production was supervised by Sergio in his own factory in Brazil. The unique attribute on this pair of 'Tonico' lounge chairs is the addition of paddle arms whereas normal production of the Tonico design was without armrests. This addition adds greater comfort to these already incredibly comfortable chairs. Secondly, 'Tonico' lounge chairs, loveseats and sofas are already incredibly rare - this pair with paddle arms are even more exceptionally rare and special. Of Sergio's designs, the 'Tonico' line is the most sought after by collectors and art collectors - this pair possesses greater rarity and also have the additional value of provenance which makes them much more valuable and desirable for collectors over the typical Tonico chairs...
