Pazmino Cognac-colored Saddle Leather Folding Arm Chairs Ecuador 1970s Angel I. Pazmino, a renowned Ecuadorian designer, created a unique pair of Mid-Century Modern tall back folding armchairs in the 1970s for Muebles de Estilo. The chairs are crafted from high-quality wood and thick cognac-colored saddle leather embossed with Inca patterns. They feature a complementary back design and are handmade with great attention to detail. Pazmino's innovative and elegant creations have gained him numerous accolades, including Ecuador's National Plastic Arts Prize in 1969. His style is often described as modern yet traditional, as he often incorporates hand-carved motifs that reflect the influence of pre-Columbian and colonial designs. His work has been exhibited in galleries and museums worldwide, including the Museum of Modern Art in New York. Pazmino's passion for design began at a young age when he started working in his father's carpentry workshop at the age of 12. He later studied composition at the Quito School of Fine Arts before opening his furniture design and production studio. His use of high-quality woods, especially laurel and cedar, and his unique style have made him one of the most celebrated Ecuadorian designers of the 20th century. His work continues to influence designers and artisans worldwide. This piece is attributed to the mentioned designer/maker. It has no attribution mark and no
