Brazilian Modern Chaise Lounge in Green Leather, Hardwood, Brass, 1960s, Brazil

About the Item

Available today, this one-of-a-kind Mid-Century Modern Chaise Lounge made in the sixties is the FIND of year and is nothing less than spectacular. The sculptural chaise lounge features a solid Brazilian Rosewood (known as Jacaranda) base, with curved arms and two delicate brass tapered legs with brass finishes. The body is upholstered in Italian Green Leather and features a very comfortable curved seat/back rest and three delicate buttons in green leather also. This piece was found in Teresopolis, a city two hours away from Rio de Janeiro known for its Modernist architecture. The wood was only refinished and showcases gorgeous wood veins, and the upholstery was done by Bianor, one of the best upholsters in Rio de Janeiro. The piece is displayed in our showroom next to a Sergio Rodrigues credenza and a Giuseppe Scapinelli coffee table and the set looks fabulous. Equally as practical as beautiful, a versatile piece like these flexes into any Mid-Century Modern, Modern or Contemporary, Transitional, or even Hollywood Regency environment. Authorship for this piece is unknown but is yet another example of the great design and joinery of Brazil in the sixties. Size: H27.6, W48.4, D39 (in) H70, W123, D99 (cm).

  • Brazilian Modern Credenza in Hardwood & Brass finish, Jean Gillon, 1960s
    By Jean Gillon
    Located in New York, NY
    Available today, this Mid-Century Modern Credenza in Hardwood with Brass finishes designed by Jean Gillon in the sixties in Brazil is the FIND of the year. The credenza has a rectangular structure made of Brazilian Rosewood, known as Jacaranda, with two main legs and two support legs on each side. It has five large drawers and four doors with shelves inside. The brass finishes are located in the joints, fringes and keys. There are few reasons why this credenza is one-of-a-kind: First, the high end wood work. This piece was commissioned for a private residence in Sao Paulo and it shows. The joints, the wood carving, the smooth curves in the drawers, even the hidden toothpick support legs are superbly finished. Second, the rosewood is of the finest quality which can be seen in the wood veins, the grain and smoothness of the wood. Lastly, design. This piece has all the components of a true Brazilian Modern piece with straight almost brutalist silhouettes softened with smooth curves (seen in the drawers and edges) that resemble Modernist architecture from Brasilia of the sixties. Owning a Jean Gillon piece like this is not just about acquiring a beautiful piece of furniture; it's also about possessing a part of Brazilian design history and culture. This credenza is a testament to Jean Gillon’s creativity and vision, and it would make an excellent addition to any interior space that values and appreciates the significance of this design. The credenza is showcased in our showroom next to Jorge Zalszupin’s bar cart...
