Description

This set is made of Caviuna wood, and features four slender toothpick legs, a seat and backrest in caning, and gracefully curved armrests that connect to the backrest. Designed in the early fifties, a time when Brazilian production was highly artisanal and limited to small batches, this model is rare. The piece is a masterpiece of design, with its organic shape creating a visual illusion of lightness despite its sturdy construction.
