Brazilian Modern Set of 8 Dining Chairs in Hardwood, Giuseppe Scapinelli, 1950s
About the Item
Introducing a beautifully sculptural and elegant set of eight dining chairs crafted from the finest rosewood and beige linen. Each chair features a tall, intricately shaped backrest, along with a well-proportioned seat and four sturdy legs. The rosewood frames have been expertly refinished and are in excellent condition. Originally sourced from a private residence in Brasília, Brazil’s capital, these chairs radiate sophistication and timeless charm. The seats have been reupholstered in a soft, textured linen that complements nicely the elegant shape of each chair.
About the designer:
Giuseppe Scapinelli was an Italian-Brazilian furniture designer who worked primarily in the mid-20th century. He was known for his elegant and innovative designs, which often incorporated curved lines, tapered legs, and other elements that were ahead of their time.
Scapinelli's work was heavily influenced by the Art Deco and Bauhaus movements, as well as his own personal experiences as an immigrant to Brazil. He produced a wide range of furniture pieces, including chairs, tables, cabinets, and more.
His furniture was characterized by its sleek lines, minimalist aesthetic, and use of high-quality materials like exotic woods and brass. Scapinelli's designs were also notable for their attention to detail and commitment to quality, which made his pieces highly durable and long-lasting.
Today, his work is highly sought after by collectors and design enthusiasts around the world. Scapinelli passed away in 1985 at the age of 75.
