About the Item

Available today, this set is nothing less than spectacular! This set of eight dining chairs was designed by Giuseppe Scapinelli in the 1950s. The structure of the chairs is in hardwood with an ebony finish. The sculpted back and legs are typical of Scapinelli’s design, showing his Italian design influence but using Brazilian woods and materials. The seat has been reupholstered in beige leather. The wood has been refurbished and is in excellent condition. These chairs belonged to a private residence in Rio de Janeiro. The set is showcased in our gallery next to an also Giuseppe Scapinelli dining table and the vignette looks nothing less than spectacular. A set like this will not only look great in a mid-century modern environment but will also flex in a contemporary, modern or eclectic environment. 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.
