Brazilian Modern Armchair in Brown Leather & Iron, Carlo Hauner, 1950s, Brazil

Creator: Carlo Hauner
Offered by: Found Collectibles

Description
Available today, this Brazilian Modern armchair in brown leather & iron, by Carlo Hauner, in Brazil during the 1950s is one of a kind!

The popular design (at the time) follows the same pattern as the also popular “Concha” armchairs from Carlo Hauner and features an intricate steel base with a soft curved, re-upholstered brown leather seat which is very comfortable. This model was produced indoors, being upholstered in leather or outdoors using either a woven cotton fiber called “Sinzal” or colorful spaghetti chords.

The piece is showcased in our gallery next to a Gelli Loveseat, a marble and wood coffee table and a Jose Zanine Caldas armchair and the convo looks awesome. The versatil piece is relatively small making fitting in almost any environment. A piece like this will look awesome in any Mid-Century Modern, modern, Contemporary or Eclectic style.

Carlo Hauner (1927-1997) and Martin Eisler (1913-1977) were the primary designers for the iconic Brazilian furniture company Forma. They are most known for well-shaped armchairs made in iron, but the production is far more complex, handcrafted, and extensive. The wood pieces produced by Forma Móveis e Objetos de Arte during 1950 & 1960s in Brazil are highly designed and well-executed.

Dimensions: H30.3, W25.2, D27.6 (in) H77, W64, D70 (cm).
