For years, Found Collectibles has been dedicated to preserving and celebrating the legacy of Brazilian Modernism. Through our carefully curated collection of vintage furniture, lighting, and decorative objects, we have sought to highlight the designers, craftsmen, and workshops that helped define one of the most important design movements of the twentieth century.

Today, we are equally excited to support a new generation of designers whose work reflects many of the same values that made Brazilian Modernism so enduring. It is for this reason that we are proud to announce our partnership with Krasnogorov Studio.

Founded by designer and craftsman Vlad Krasnogorov, the studio creates furniture and lighting that balances organic sculptural forms, material integrity, and exceptional craftsmanship. While distinctly contemporary, the work carries a clear dialogue with the traditions that have long inspired us: an appreciation for natural materials, an emphasis on handmade production, and a belief that functional objects can also serve as works of art.
One of the strongest examples of this approach is the Model 2 Armchair, now available through our gallery. Defined by its flowing silhouette, the chair demonstrates a remarkable understanding of form and structure. Every curve serves a purpose, creating a piece that is both visually striking and exceptionally comfortable. The design celebrates the natural beauty of wood while showcasing the precision and craftsmanship required to bring such complex forms to life.

The same commitment to sculptural expression can be found in the Novios Floor Lamp, recipient of the 2026 LUXE Magazine Readers’ Choice Award for Best Lighting Design. Constructed from two carved hardwood forms that come together to suggest the silhouette of intertwined figures, the lamp blurs the boundary between utility and sculpture. The result is a piece that feels deeply human and expressive while maintaining a strong architectural presence within an interior—a testament to the thoughtful design language that earned it national recognition.

We are also pleased to present the Sylvie Sconce, a work that further demonstrates Krasnogorov Studio's ability to transform simple materials into elegant, highly considered forms. Combining refined craftsmanship with a strong sculptural sensibility, the sconce embodies the studio's approach to creating lighting that is both functional and visually compelling.

What connects these pieces to the broader tradition of Brazilian Modernism is not simply their aesthetic language, but the philosophy behind their creation. Like many of the great Brazilian designers of the twentieth century, Krasnogorov draws inspiration from nature, organic forms, and the expressive possibilities of wood. The work embraces craftsmanship as an essential part of the design process, resulting in objects that possess both material richness and lasting character.

While the Model 2 Armchair, Novios Floor Lamp, and Sylvie Sconce currently represent Krasnogorov Studio within our gallery, they offer only a glimpse into the studio's broader collection. Krasnogorov Studios' portfolio includes a diverse range of seating, floor, and table lamps, sconces, chandeliers, and sculptural lighting pieces, each distinguished by the same commitment to craftsmanship, material integrity, and expressive form. Additional models can be viewed upon request, and every Krasnogorov Studio design is available for purchase through Found Collectibles. The entire Krasnogorov Studio Collection can be viewed here.

At Found Collectibles, we believe that collectible design is not confined to the past. While we remain committed to preserving important historical works, we are equally passionate about supporting contemporary designers who are advancing the conversation through originality, skill, and a deep respect for their materials.
As of May 2026, Found Collectibles is the only gallery in New York City where collectors, designers, and architects can experience Krasnogorov Studio's work in person. Visitors to our gallery can view the Sylvie Sconce, Model 2 Armchair, and Novios Floor Lamp alongside our collection of important Brazilian modernist works, creating a unique dialogue between historical design and contemporary craftsmanship. This partnership provides direct access not only to the pieces currently on display, but also to Krasnogorov Studio's complete collection and custom-order opportunities.
The next chapter of collectible design is being written today, and we are honored to share Krasnogorov Studio's work as part of that story.
