$ 22,000
  • Description
    Available today, with domestic shipping in the NYC metro area included, these Brazilian Mid-Century Armchairs with Pouf in Hardwood, Leather and Fabric, Carlo Hauner, c. 1950s, is nothing less than gorgeous!

    This set of armchairs with a matching pouf is crafted from hardwood, leather, and fabric. The armchairs feature elegantly curved arms and four delicate wooden legs. To maintain the original upholstery style and technique, we chose green leather, stitched together with nails, for the body, and white and green stripes for the loose cushions. This ensemble is part of a living room set that includes these pieces and a sofa (lot 209A). The set was acquired from a home in São Paulo, Brazil.

    With its unique style and design, this set of armchairs with the matching pouf would make a striking addition to any home, blending functionality with artistic flair to create a focal point in any space. This set of armchairs like this will look great in any type of environment, from mid-century to contemporary and modern design.

    About the Designer:
    Carlo Hauner's (1927-1997) partnership with Martin Eisler (1913-1977) embodied a new era of Brazilian Modernist design, establishing the iconic Brazilian Furniture company Forma as co-founders and head designers. Born in Brescia, Italy, Hauner began his career as a painter in Milan before eventually emigrating and establishing himself in Brazil. He founded Móveis Artesanal in São Paulo, later evolving into the renowned Forma in 1953 after partnering with Martin Eisler.

    Hauner and Eisler differentiated themselves by pioneering new production methods while simultaneously incorporating Brazilian motifs and cultural influences. Their skilled craftsmanship, coupled with the use of local materials such as hardwood, leather, and iron, resulted in elegant and versatile pieces that attracted a wider audience. Hauner and Eisler revolutionized furniture design, now internationally recognized as one of the leading mid-century Modern Brazilian design companies.
