Description

This pair of Brazilian modern armchairs, designed by Carlo Hauner and manufactured by Forma Moveis in 1955, is named "Concha" (Portuguese for "Shell") due to their resemblance to an open seashell. These iconic chairs feature an intricate and delicate steel frame with a curved leather seat. The low, wide seats offer exceptional comfort, and their sleek design allows them to complement any home interior. Both chairs have been meticulously refinished, and the seats reupholstered to ensure they are in excellent condition.
