"Mapá" Contemporary Armchair in Wood and Braided Straw with Raw Cotton Cushion

About the Item

This contemporary armchair in wood and braided straw with raw cotton cushion was meticulously handmade by master artisans one piece at a time. It is therefore quite difficult, if not impossible to make identical items. The projects are based on a contemporary appropriation of traditional methods from Brazillian artisans and reinterpreted through the integration of new forms and noble materials. An aesthetic infused with “beauty of imperfection" is obtained by the expressive potential of each material, generating works that recall nature and rationality. Estúdio Orth is a multidisciplinary office, based in São Paulo, that uses a brutalist language through the use of natural materials. Their work deals with themes such as symbolism and Brazilian syncretism, in the production of sculptures that are in fact functional objects, like chandeliers, lamps and chairs in materials such as crystals, brass, leather and molten metal.
