About the Item

This pair of armchairs with slatted seats and backrests was manufactured in the 1960s, but the authorship is still in research by our team. Pieces are made of solid Brazilian Rosewood and recently reupholstered in gorgeous off-white nubuck leather by the experienced craftsmen in our team. The armchairs present a rectangular angled design, showing beautiful diagonals in the armrests, the backrests, and the hind legs – slightly leaning back. The wood is permeated by veins and stunning color variations The pieces are in very good vintage condition; the old varnish was partially removed (without sanding) and the piece received a thin layer of shellac. Among the icons, there is a whole universe of craftsmen and small companies that embraced the modern design, with Brazilian materials and forms — well designed and quality furniture, still waiting to be known by the public.
