About the Item

Available today, these Mid-Century Modern rocking chair in Bentwood by Moveis Cimo in Brazil during the fifties decade is magnificent!

The rocking chair has been refinished and besides the marks of the age (mostly in the legs) the piece is in excellent condition. Remnants of the manufactured seal can be found under the seat. A piece like this is a statement by itself but will look awesome in a mid-century, boho chic or even Modern Farmhouse environment Móveis Cimo was created by Jorge Zipperer and Willy Jung, in 1913, Santa Catarina, Brazil. From the 1930s to the 1970s Cimo was the largest furniture factory in Latin America. Cimo's history starts in 1921 as a wood box factory called A.Ehrl e Cia. but became Móveis Cimo S.A shortky after.
