About the Item
This rare armchair features luxurious details and a masterful level of construction which speaks volumes of its unknown maker. The sled-style legs are held by visible box joints, while the suspended seat offers a subtle bounce and graceful curve; a contrast with the stately geometry of the frame.

- Pair of Brazilian Modernist Rosewood & Leather Easy Chairs, circa 1970sBy Sergio Rodrigues, Percival LaferLocated in Norwalk, CTGenerous proportions and luxurious finishes set this fabulous pair of Brazilian Modernist lounge chairs apart from the rest. The frames are crafted from gorgeous solid rosewood, with interesting sculptural chamfering at the legs. The tufted cushions are finished in beautiful caramel-colored leather and fastened by fringed straps which give just the right amount of Bohemian flair. Though these chairs are unsigned, they bear many similarities to contemporaneous designs by Percival Lafer, Sergio Rodrigues, and Jean Gillon. As one of the world's leading producers of rosewood, the nation of Brazil has long held close ties to the furniture industry. Yet, it was not until the second half of the 20th Century when the South American country - long known solely as an exporter of raw materials - became a design powerhouse in its own right. During this time, designers such as Percival Lafer and Sergio Rodrigues drew upon a unique shared cultural aesthetic and a rebellious spirit to create some of the coolest and most sought-after furniture of the Modern era.
