Description
An exceptional set of twelve Brazilian dining chairs from the 1960s, comprising two head chairs with arms and ten armless side chairs. The ensemble is defined by a beautiful, demure silhouette—elegant in scale, visually light, and meticulously proportioned.
Crafted in richly figured Brazilian rosewood, each chair features a tall, gently tapered back, a softly contoured seat, and slender legs that lend the design its poised architectural character. The two head chairs are distinguished by sculptural rosewood arms, precisely angled to follow the lines of the frame while preserving the collection’s graceful profile.
The chairs have been completely restored, bringing renewed depth and luminosity to the rosewood while preserving its natural grain and tonal variation. They have also been newly upholstered in luxurious mohair, selected for its exceptional softness, durability, and subtle luster. The fabric responds beautifully to light, enriching the chairs with warmth and quiet sophistication.
Substantial enough to anchor a grand dining room yet restrained in expression, this complete twelve-chair set embodies the refinement, material richness, and confident craftsmanship associated with Brazilian mid-century modern design.
