About the Item

"Celina" Sofa by Muniz Zylberberg, a stunning piece of Brazilian Modernism designed in the 1960s. This exceptional three-seater sofa features a highly geometrical structure in massive Pau Ferro, free from excessive ornamentation, with clean horizontal lines. The disposition of the wooden beams creates an aesthetic linear pattern at the back, allowing it to be showcased in the center of a room. This exquisite sofa boasts attached side tables with original marble tops. Acquired from a private collector in Vitoria, Espirito Santo, Brazil, in February 2024, this piece has undergone meticulous restoration. The entire structure has been polished and cleaned, correcting superficial veneer damage, and the marble tops have been expertly polished to enhance their natural beauty. The cushions have been reupholstered with natural 100% linen fabric in a double mesh, ensuring both comfort and style. Its originality lies in the harmonious dialogue between the warmth of the tropical wood and the cold marble of the two incorporated side tables.

Minimalist Daybed by Jorge Zalszupin, Brazil, 1960s
By Jorge Zalszupin
Located in Antwerp, BE
This exceptional daybed from the 1960s, designed by renowned Polish-Brazilian architect and designer Jorge Zalszupin, is a testament to mid-century modern elegance. One of only two ever produced, this rare piece was crafted in 1963 as a personal gift for Zalszupin's sister, Ina Zalszupin, making it not just a striking design object but also a unique historical artifact. Crafted with a minimalist approach, it boasts a warm wooden frame with an inviting patina, supporting a high-quality off-white mattress. Jorge Zalszupin (1922 - 2020) was a prominent figure in modern design, known for his architectural and artistic contributions. Born in Poland and later relocating to Brazil, he played a crucial role in the Brazilian modernist movement. Zalszupin co-founded L'Atelier, a renowned furniture design manufacturer, and collaborated with renowned architect Oscar Niemeyer to create furniture for Brazil's capital, Brasília. His mastery of materials like plywood and chromed metal resulted in sensually elegant pieces, making L'Atelier a significant player in the Brazilian furniture industry and leaving a lasting legacy in the world of design. This daybed is one of only two ever produced by Jorge Zalszupin as a personal gift for his sister, Ina Zalszupin. Its exceptional rarity and authenticity are documented by a signed statement from Roberto Halfin, son of Ina Zalszupin, confirming that the two daybeds...
