Boca Do Lobo Console Tables

A passion for breaking boundaries and challenging the status quo is what sets Portuguese furniture brand Boca do Lobo apart from its contemporaries. Founded in 2005, the company’s artisans draw on traditional craftsmanship as well as contemporary furniture-making techniques to produce edgy, eye-catching dining tables, case pieces, sofas and more.

Boca do Lobo launched with a bang. The manufacturer’s first collection, Soho, is irreverent and playful, featuring multicolored sideboards as well as consoles and low-profile coffee tables made with a range of materials such as rosewood, brass, fabric and more. Each piece boasts a variety of ornamental flourishes. The Soho sideboard, for example, remains one of the series’ most popular and iconic pieces and features decorative brass drawer pulls, drawer fronts finished with gold leaf or black glass with etched detailing and other stylish touches.

The Pixel collection, which is named for the multitude of picture elements that comprise a digital image, is also hard to ignore, with striking cabinets made of more than 1,000 textured wooden triangles in varying woods and finishes such as African walnut veneer, gold leaf and black lacquer mounted on an elegant polished brass base. As part of the Pixel collection, Boca do Lobo collaborated with renowned porcelain manufacturer Vista Alegre to create a delicate, limited-edition hand-painted cabinet named “Once Upon a Time.”

With one foot in past movements such as mid-century modernism and the other firmly in the present, Boca do Lobo combines sleek, streamlined forms with Baroque-inspired ornament and exuberant colors and materials. This flair for the unexpected makes their furnishings popular in high-end residential projects as well as luxury hospitality and retail spaces like Harrods in London, the Fairmont Hotel chain in the United States and elsewhere. Boca do Lobo’s contemporary classics are putting Portuguese craftsmanship on the global stage.
