About the Item

Martin Eisler Carlo Hauner Costela style lounge chair in black lacquer. Originally designed by Martin Eisler in 1952 this is an icon of Brazilian 1950s design. Martin Eisler and Carlo Hauner Costela lounge chair, the Costela chair was an important design for the Brazilian mid century modern movement. The original Costela chair was designed by Martin Eisler in 1953 and manufactured by the companies Móveis Artesanal and Forma. The name "Costela" which translates as "Rib", is apparent in the design with it’s eight wooden slats that resemble a rib structure made with Brazilian Imbuia wood. The slats are rhythmically positioned and curve upwards on the sides. A curved stainless steel frame with short legs creates the necessary support. An elegant yet informal armchair with its sensual aesthetic, natural materials and intelligent design. The structure is easy to dismantle and recycle, a characteristic perfect for addressing the principles of sustainability and durability. This chair was made after the beautiful and iconic ‘Costela’ lounge chair designed by Carlo Hauner and Martin Eisler.
