About the Item

Moyses B. Klajn for Moveis Leal, lounge chair, Brazilian hardwood, iron, reupholstered in linen "Menerbes" by Pierre Frey, Brazil, circa 1968 This exceptionally rare armchair is created by Brazilian designer Moyses B. Klajn for Moveis Leal around 1968. The design bears the beauty of Brazil's natural environment through its raw, brutalist layout and the skillful use of a local, solid wooden material. The construction is defined by geometric shapes, logical proportions, and visible constructivist elements. The frame is executed in Brazilian hardwood combined with a tubular black steel frame. Characterized by simplicity, clarity and absence of ornamentation, this framework is exemplary of architectural minimalism. With their ergonomic seating arrangement provided by the seat, backrest, and wooden armrests, this chair offers both comfort and style. Reupholstered in a turquoise linen fabric, it beautifully complements the wooden elements. In every stylistic detail, this chair possess the precise charm and vitality required to encapsulate the essence of 1960s Brazilian design.
