Sideboard in Rosewood & Formica, Geraldo de Barros, 1950s - Lot 185

Description

This elegant sideboard was designed by Geraldo de Barros during his tenure at Unilabor. It exemplifies many of Barros' signature design elements, including the use of Brazilian Rosewood (Jacaranda), formica, and brass details on the handles. Featuring three drawers and a spacious storage compartment, this versatile piece seamlessly complements interiors ranging from mid-century to contemporary, modern, and eclectic styles.

The rosewood used in this piece is of exceptional quality, characterized by vibrant veins that enhance its visual appeal. The craftsmanship is also exemplary, contributing to its overall excellent condition. Despite being produced during Brazil’s industrialization era (1940s-1970s), such furniture pieces were crafted in small artisanal batches, making them increasingly rare finds today.
