About the Item
Designed by José Zanine Caldas in the 1950s, the iconic Namoradeira features simple, elegant lines that seamlessly blend modern design with traditional craftsmanship.
Sculpted from a single piece of wood, this piece is part of Zanine Caldas’ Móveis Denúncia or “protest furniture", a series of works created in response to the deforestation of the forests surrounding his native Brazil.
The name "Namoradeira" comes from the Portuguese word "namorar," meaning to date or court. Like other traditional tête-à-tête seating, this rocker allows two people to sit facing each other, creating an ideal space for intimate conversation.
Its elegant design, combined with the profound environmental message it conveys, makes the Namoradeira more than just a piece of furniture; it becomes a symbol of connection—both between people and the natural world.
