About the Item

Available today, this mid-century Brazilian modern desk, designed by Moveis Fratte in the fifties, is absolutely magnificent!

The wood has been carefully refinished and besides the marks of age the piece is in great condition. This Brazilian modern gem effortlessly flexes into any mid-century modern, modern, or contemporary environment. The armchair is currently displayed in the gallery next with a Carlo Hauner steel & cane chair and looks gorgeous. If you are looking to add a piece of Brazilian modern furniture to your home, look no further!
