Description
Available today, this Brazilian modern magazine rack, made with copper and iron by Carlo Hauner & Martin Eisler in the 1950s, is absolutely gorgeous! The magazine rack features a curved metal in black structure, with a shiny hammered copper holder, and was quite popular in the fifties. It is an elegant, sophisticated, and attention grabbing piece that will elevate any room.
The magazine rack is showcased in our gallery next to a Geraldo de Barros chest of drawers, a Giuseppe Scapinelli armchair, and a Abraham Palatinik sculpture and the combo looks stellar. If you are looking for a true collectible piece that reflects Brazilian modernism in the fifties, look no further!
Carlo Hauner (1927-1997) and Martin Eisler (1913-1977) were the primary designers for the iconic Brazilian furniture company Forma. Hauner’s and Eisler’s designs are characterized by the use of Brazilian woods, thin tubular frames and range from furniture, to ceramics and textiles. Their narrative spans through four countries (Italy, Austria, Brazil, and Argentina) and several decades, and their exceptional works are already highly sought-after examples of the vibrant modern design movement in Latin America.
