Peg Lev Armchair, Michel Arnoult, 1968, Midcentury Brazilian

About the Item

Michel Arnoult (1922-2005) defended that good design should be accessible to everyone. To this end, he has always invested in industrial and assembly processes that could lower the cost of products. In 1955, Arnoult founded Mobília Contemporânea, where he developed different furniture models investing in industrial and assembly processes that could lower the cost of production. The Peg-Lev armchair was created in 1968 as a line of removable furniture, followed by other pieces with the same logic. In this way, the customer could buy the parts inside a small box and assemble them at home. This piece is in very good vintage condition, with gorgeous antique leather aged by time.
