About the Item

Móveis Gelli Armchair, c. 1950 This elegant armchair, produced by the iconic Brazilian manufacturer Móveis Gelli circa 1950, is a fine example of mid-century Brazilian design. Retaining its original Gelli label and stamp, the piece features a beautifully crafted Caviuna wood frame—known for its rich tone and expressive grain—paired with its original cotton upholstery. The design combines clean lines and subtle curves, reflecting the brand’s commitment to quality craftsmanship and timeless aesthetics. Both authentic and rare, this armchair offers collectors a glimpse into the refined material culture of postwar Brazil. Dimensions: 63 x 62 x 80 cm (24 4/5 x 24 41/100 x 31 1/2 in) The raspberry color of the cotton fabric highlights the nobility of the Caviuna essence. Contains the Gelli label and stamp.
