Mid-Century 1950 Vintage Carlo Hauner Chair

About the Item

Carlo Hauner was originally from Italy and studied as a painter. In 1948, he successfully participated in the Venice Biennale when he moved to Brazil and dedicated himself to design, ceramics, and textile. Alongside Martin Eisler he was the primary designer for the iconic Brazilian furniture company Forma, which focused on industrial processes of production. He constantly turned to the use of thin metal frames and Brazilian wood. This model presents his craving for simple but bold pieces. This chair features a gently curved, upholstered seat and backrest, which provide ergonomic comfort. The seat is covered in a textured brown fabric that enhances its vintage aesthetic. The chair stands on a delicate metal frame with slender, tapering legs that create an elegant yet sturdy foundation. The legs are connected by subtle crossbars for added stability, and the brass accents at the feet lend a refined touch. The overall design is minimalistic yet sophisticated.
