BRAZILIAN FURNITURE

More often than not, vintage mid-century Brazilian furniture designs, with their gleaming wood, soft leathers and inviting shapes, share a sensuous, unique quality that distinguishes them from the more rectilinear output of American and Scandinavian makers of the same era.

Commencing in the 1940s and '50s, a group of architects and designers transformed the local cultural landscape in Brazil, merging the modernist vernacular popular in Europe and the United States with the South American country's traditional techniques and indigenous materials.

Key mid-century influencers on Brazilian furniture design include natives Oscar NiemeyerSergio Rodrigues and José Zanine Caldas as well as such European immigrants as Joaquim TenreiroJean Gillon and Jorge Zalszupin. These creators frequently collaborated; for instance, Niemeyer, an internationally acclaimed architect, commissioned many of them to furnish his residential and institutional buildings.

The popularity of Brazilian modern furniture has made household names of these designers and other greats. Their particular brand of modernism is characterized by an émigré point of view (some were Lithuanian, German, Polish, Ukrainian, Portuguese, and Italian), a preference for highly figured indigenous Brazilian woods, a reverence for nature as an inspiration and an atelier or small-production mentality.

Hallmarks of Brazilian mid-century design include smooth, sculptural forms and the use of native woods like rosewoodjacaranda and pequi. The work of designers today exhibits many of the same qualities, though with a marked interest in exploring new materials (witness the Campana Brothers' stuffed-animal chairs) and an emphasis on looking inward rather than to other countries for inspiration.

Pair of 18th-century architectural fragments
Located in Rio De Janeiro, BR
This pair of 18th-century architectural fragments captures the elegance and craftsmanship of colonial-era decorative art. Originally part of a larger structure, these wooden fragments showcase intricate carvings, likely once embellishing a grand interior space with their distinctive style. Each piece features a graceful, fluted column-like design with scrolling volutes, adding a sense of movement and refinement that reflects the baroque influence prevalent during the period. The patina on the wood speaks to the age and authenticity of these fragments, with a natural wear that enhances their character and historical charm. Delicate foliate motifs can be observed near the top, subtly incorporated into the design to evoke a sense of organic beauty. The unique curvature and details would have made these fragments a highlight within their original architectural setting. These fragments are versatile in their potential uses today, making them ideal as decorative pieces in various settings. Whether mounted on a wall or displayed on pedestals, they serve as striking reminders of 18th-century artistry and add a sense of historical grandeur to any space.

All-Natural Amethyst Geode Cave with Sparkling Points on Stand, High-End Crystal
Located in Ametista Do Sul, BR
Stunning Amethyst Geode with Shining Crystals and Rare Golden Cacoxenite ▫️ Description An Amethyst Geode that will elevate your space with its sparkly Amethyst druzy featuring golden Cacoxenite inclusions and aesthetic cave formation. This geode brings beauty and sophistication to any area of your home or office decor, whether it be a table, shelf, or a special place. Among its many special characteristics, the first that draws attention is its all-natural formation, showcasing the natural green basalt that gives color to the outer shell and the blue agate matrix, which surrounds the entire geode in a spectacular natural flow. This stunning formation creates a contrast with the sparkling amethyst and adds a sense of depth and character to the overall composition, all while being 100% natural, without the need for cement or painting to reinforce it. Sparkling and intact, the Lavender Amethyst druzy features small crystals with perfect points, forming an array of glistening gems that beautifully complement the agate. Since the geode formed with a wide "entrance," even the deepest points can be seen shining from the outside. This lustrous effect is a highlight of this geode and is rare to find in amethysts. In addition to all of that, you can rest assured knowing that this geode is ethically sourced, ensuring that it has been obtained and handled in a responsible and sustainable manner. Please check the pictures to see more of it and feel free to message us in case you have any questions or particular requests. 🤍 ▫️ All-Natural Amethyst Geode...
