Designed by Oscar Niemeyer and Anna Maria Niemeyer in 1978 and produced by Tepperman, the Rio chaise longue is constructed from lacquered molded plywood with a cane seating surface and a leather cylindrical neck cushion suspended by leather straps. The form follows a continuous sinuous curve, which functions simultaneously as structure and base. The cane panel is set within the black-lacquered plywood frame, and the leather cushion is secured at the headrest end by looped straps. Oscar Niemeyer, the Brazilian architect whose practice defined the formal vocabulary of Brazilian modernism, collaborated on furniture design with his daughter Anna Maria Niemeyer. His architectural output, most extensively realized in the construction of Brasília from the late 1950s onward, was characterized by curved concrete forms, a quality that translated directly into the Rio chaise.Anna Maria Niemeyer contributed substantially to the furniture designs attributed to their collaboration during this period.

An exceptional example of Brazilian Modern craftsmanship, this sculptural telephone bench from the 1960s transforms an everyday domestic object into a refined architectural statement. Originally conceived as a telephone seat, its timeless proportions and multifunctional design translate effortlessly into today's interiors as an elegant accent bench, entryway piece, bedroom seat, dressing room companion, or hallway focal point. Crafted entirely from beautifully aged solid rosewood, the piece showcases a striking patchwork composition of richly figured boards, celebrating the dramatic natural variation of the timber. Deep chocolate, cinnamon, and reddish-brown tones intermingle with expressive cathedral grain and swirling movement, creating a composition that is both organic and highly graphic. Unlike many period examples, the cabinetry is fully finished on every side—including the back—allowing the bench to float beautifully within a room rather than requiring placement against a wall. The integrated cabinet features two generously sized drawers fitted with sculptural solid wood pulls, providing discreet storage while preserving the clean architectural silhouette. The opposite side is formed by an elegant slatted bench seat...

Percival Lafer “MP-41” Sofa for Lafer MP, wood and cognac leather, Brazil, 1972 The “MP-41” sofa by Percival Lafer embraces fluidity with a structure that appears weightless despite its solid wood frame. The absence of visible crossbars beneath the seat enhances this effect, allowing the thick, tufted cushions to seemingly float. The upholstery drapes over the structure like silk fabric on a sculpted form, a harmonious integration of material and frame. The butterfly-shaped joints refine the frame’s construction, tapering toward the center for a softened profile. The lateral tufting on the seat is not merely decorative—it creates a structured geometry that follows the contours of the body. The armrests, backrest, and seat merge into a single, uninterrupted form, maximizing ergonomic support. Leather straps secure the cushions to the frame, a signature Lafer detail that blends artisanal technique with industrial efficiency. The MP-41 prioritizes organic curves over strict geometric lines. The deep cognac leather, aged to a rich patina, enhances the warmth of the wood. The absence of ornamentation shifts focus to the raw materials, celebrating their natural textures and variations. Unlike Jean Gillon...
