Description

These very sleek and timeless armchairs were designed by Geraldo de Barros for his own company Unilabor in the 1950s. It is one of Barros’ most iconic designs. The metal in the legs was left untouched, a nice mild rust patina can be appreciated. This gives a nice contrast with the newly restored rosewood armrests and the new white boucle upholstery. These chairs are in excellent condition.
