BRAZILIAN FURNITURE

More often than not, vintage mid-century Brazilian furniture designs, with their gleaming wood, soft leathers and inviting shapes, share a sensuous, unique quality that distinguishes them from the more rectilinear output of American and Scandinavian makers of the same era.

Commencing in the 1940s and '50s, a group of architects and designers transformed the local cultural landscape in Brazil, merging the modernist vernacular popular in Europe and the United States with the South American country's traditional techniques and indigenous materials.

Key mid-century influencers on Brazilian furniture design include natives Oscar NiemeyerSergio Rodrigues and José Zanine Caldas as well as such European immigrants as Joaquim TenreiroJean Gillon and Jorge Zalszupin. These creators frequently collaborated; for instance, Niemeyer, an internationally acclaimed architect, commissioned many of them to furnish his residential and institutional buildings.

The popularity of Brazilian modern furniture has made household names of these designers and other greats. Their particular brand of modernism is characterized by an émigré point of view (some were Lithuanian, German, Polish, Ukrainian, Portuguese, and Italian), a preference for highly figured indigenous Brazilian woods, a reverence for nature as an inspiration and an atelier or small-production mentality.

Hallmarks of Brazilian mid-century design include smooth, sculptural forms and the use of native woods like rosewoodjacaranda and pequi. The work of designers today exhibits many of the same qualities, though with a marked interest in exploring new materials (witness the Campana Brothers' stuffed-animal chairs) and an emphasis on looking inward rather than to other countries for inspiration.

A Maru teak wood counter stool designed by Uultis Studio and upholstered in a beige fabric. *Please check availability prior to purchase*. The Maru teak wood counter stool, designed by Uultis Studio, combines cultural inspiration with modern functionality to create a beautiful and practical addition to any home. The stool features a sleek teak wood base, offering both strength and natural warmth. Its seat is upholstered in Wheat Thin Twill Weave fabric, a light beige material that adds subtle elegance while providing comfortable seating for high surfaces such as kitchen islands or bar counters. Please note that teak has natural variations, therefore each piece will be very unique. The teak wood will receive a teak touch finish, that is matte and velvety, preserving the natural feel of the wood. Inspired by the traditional straw sieves used in Brazilian food production by native communities, the Maru stool integrates cultural elements into its modern design. The clean, armless silhouette allows for easy storage, making it a space-saving option that fits seamlessly under countertops when not in use. Its minimalist design ensures versatility, making it suitable for both contemporary and traditional interiors. Committed to sustainability, Uultis carefully selects eco-friendly materials and incorporates responsible practices into the production of each piece.

Percival Lafer MP-116 Modular Lounge Chair, Brazil 1970s Rare Set of 4 available
Percival Lafer MP-116 Modular Lounge Chair, Brazil 1970s Rare Set of 4 available

Percival Lafer MP-116 Modular Lounge Chair, Brazil 1970s Rare Set of 4 available

By Percival Lafer, De Sede, Sergio Rodrigues

Located in Chattanooga, TN

An exceptional and increasingly scarce example of the Percival Lafer MP-116 modular lounge system, produced in Brazil in the 1970s and offered here as an individual seating unit. A total of four matching modules are available, an extremely rare occurrence for this model. Sets of this size, in this level of preservation, almost never reach the market. The MP-116 represents one of Lafer’s most sculptural and architecturally ambitious seating designs, defined by its distinctive pillow-block construction, deeply gathered leather upholstery, and the refined engineering that characterizes his most collectible work. Each module is crafted from four generously padded, individually upholstered leather blocks that create the sensuous, soft geometry that has made the MP-116 one of the most coveted designs of Lafer’s career. Upholstered in a rich, dark-chocolate leather, the cushions retain their fullness and tactile depth, presenting in very good original condition with the kind of surface character and luster that collectors seek. The frames are executed in solid Brazilian Jatobá hardwood, a dense, high-value tropical species noted for its strength and warm, glowing tonality. The timber displays exceptional grain clarity and remains in outstanding condition, underscoring the longevity and craftsmanship of this early production. The MP-116 was conceived as a genuinely forward-thinking modular system—far more sophisticated than most mid-century modular seating. A single unit makes a striking lounge chair with its sculptural massing and enveloping comfort, while multiple units can be combined into expansive sofas, balanced loveseats, long chaises, or asymmetrical compositions suited to contemporary architectural interiors. The ability to acquire four identical modules offers a level of design freedom, visual coherence, and spatial flexibility that is virtually impossible to source today. For designers and collectors working at a high level, this is an opportunity to build a complete, historically correct MP-116 suite. This listing is for one MP-116 lounge seat, though up to four matching pieces are available. The set comes directly from the original owner and is accompanied by photocopies of the 1973 Brazil Contempo...
