Vintage Imbuia Sofa by Móveis Cimo, 1960s, Brazilian Midcentury

About the Item

This Imbuia sofa reupholstered in a stunning velvet was manufactured in the 1960s by the Brazilian company Móveis Cimo, a pioneer in Brazilian furniture industrialization. Cimo Sofa is very charming, presenting the seat and backrest as a single piece that seems to float over the Imbuia structure. It is a very comfortable piece of furniture and has many details to be in love with. It is worth highlighting the wooden partitions made of solid Imbuia that mark the division between the seat and back and the beautiful brass hole plugs. Cimo's history starts in 1921 with a wood boxes factory called A.Ehrl e Cia. and ends in 1982 as a furniture factory, after many names and format changes, as Móveis Cimo S.A. Móveis Cimo became the most significant furniture producer in Latin America, playing a fundamental role in developing its region and advancing manufacturing series furniture in the country, being a pioneer in several sectors and an important chapter in Brazilian furniture making.
