Set of 8 Rosewood and Cane Chairs by Móveis Cantù, 1960s, Brazilian Midcentury

About the Item

These Cane Chairs made in solid Rosewood were produced by Cantù Móveis e Interiores Ltda. in the 1960s. The pieces are composed of solid Rosewood structure that explores different shapes of the material. Seats and backs have straight cuts, while the basis structure has rounded finishes. Seats and backrests are single volumes made of cane, touching the legs in two small sculpted fittings made of Rosewood. Architects Jorge Jabour Mauad and Osires Cunha Meale were responsible for designing the furniture of Cantù Móveis e Interiores Ltda. This production represents a vast production of Brazilian furniture designed by architects and manufactured by small companies in the 1960s. The specialists were responsible for conducting studies and projects for interior installations, using Brazilian Rosewood, marbles, leathers, and national fabrics in its manufacture. This set is composed of eight chairs in the original condition. Wood and cane restoration included.

  • Brazilian Modern Chairs in Hardwood & Cane by Alexandre Rapoport, 1960s, Brazil
    Located in New York, NY
    Available today, this pair of midcentury modern chairs made in Brazilian Rosewood, known as Jacaranda & Cane designed by Alexandre Rapoport in the 1960’s are gorgeous! The delicate set features a Rosewood structure with caning in the seat. The Brazilian Rosewood is nothing less than spectacular and displays vibrant wood veins that almost feel the chairs are alive! The pair is extremely light weight, as a result of the Jacaranda's aging process. Extensive logging has virtually eliminated Rosewood from the Brazilian forests, so that today it is not supposed to be logged. The only material that can be sold legally is old stock. By owning a vintage piece made of old Jacaranda, you’re not only getting a beautiful collectible but also helping this species to recuperate. This gorgeous set would look great in any mid century modern, modern, contemporary environment used as dining or accent chairs. About the author, Alexandre Rapoport (Rio de Janeiro, 1929) is a Brazilian painter, architect, draftsman and engraver. Self-taught of Russian origin, he began painting at the Faculty of Architecture before the end of the 1950s. He studied drawing with Ubi Paiva and, while a student, attended engraving classes by Raymundo Cella at the National School of Fine Arts; it was then that he participated in his first group exhibitions promoted by the Federal Government. He had contact with Cândido Portinari...
