Rosewood Armchairs by Móveis Cantù, 1960s, Brazilian Midcentury

About the Item

These armchairs were produced by Cantù Móveis e Interiores Ltda. in the 1960s and were presented in the company catalog from this period. With structure turned in solid Rosewood and rounded details, the upholstered seats, backrests, and loose cushions received new upholstery in 100% Organic Silk fabric from our Bossa Fabrics collection. Architects Jorge Jabour Mauad and Osires Cunha Meale were responsible for designing the furniture of Cantù Móveis e Interiores Ltda. This production represents a vast production of Brazilian furniture designed by architects and manufactured by small companies in the 1960s. The specialists were responsible for conducting studies and projects for interior installations, using Brazilian Rosewood, marbles, leathers, and national fabrics in its manufacture. With a color pallet rooted in natural shades, our Fabric collection tells a bit about Brazilian biodiversity through raw and natural materials and artisanal processes. For dyeing this textured fabric, the feedstock was pine nut bark (Araucária angustifólia).
