Description
The Costela armchair is an iconic Brazilian Mid-Century Modern piece. It was designed by Martin Eisler (1913 - 1977) in 1953 and manufactured by the companies Móveis Artesanal and Forma S.A. Móveis e Objetos de Arte, where he was partner and co-founder. The name "Costela", which translates as "Rib", is apparent in the design with its eight wooden slats that resemble a rib structure made with Brazilian hardwood. The slats are rhythmically positioned and curve upwards on the sides, gently embracing the softly padded cushions. A curved steel frame with short legs creates the necessary support. .
The wood has been refinished and displays colorful veins. The metal structure is in its original condition.
We offer complimentary upholstery with any of our beautiful fabrics and leathers.
