About the Item
José Zanine Caldas (1919-2001)
Pair of Armchairs Model Zeca, c. 1950
Historical piece
Naval wedge and Linen
76 x 59 x 85 cm
This rare pair of “Zeca” armchairs, designed by José Zanine Caldas circa 1950, exemplifies the early phase of his innovative and nature-inspired design practice. Crafted from naval plywood and upholstered in natural linen, the chairs reflect Zanine’s commitment to accessible, modern Brazilian furniture using industrial materials with artisanal sensibility. The sculptural cutouts and ergonomic form express his deep understanding of structure and organic form, rooted in both architectural and vernacular traditions. As a historical piece, this pair embodies the designer’s pioneering approach to sustainability and design democracy in postwar Brazil.
