About the Item
This coffee table, produced in the 1960s, is a refined example of Brazilian mid-century furniture design. Crafted in solid Caviuna, it features a Formica top — a decorative solution widely adopted during the period, prized for its durability and modern aesthetic appeal. What distinguishes this piece, however, is its set of elliptical legs, executed from massive blocks of golden Caviuna. The use of such abundant and high-quality wood was uncommon even at the time, and has since become exceptionally rare, underscoring the uniqueness of this table.
The piece holds a remarkable provenance, having originally furnished the iconic Hotel Nacional in Brasília, inaugurated in 1961. During the 1960s and 1970s, the hotel became a landmark of modern Brazilian architecture and a stage for sophistication, hosting international dignitaries, cultural figures, and glamorous social events. The table still carries a numbered metal tag with the hotel’s patrimonial identification, preserving both its authenticity and its historical significance.
