This Sergio Rodriguez Sheriff Chair and Ottoman were completely disassembled and each piece of rosewood was stripped, sanded and refinished in multiple coats of hand-buffed finishing oil. Every dowel was also oiled and detailed before reassembly. Both frames are now rock solid and special care was given to each joint to ensure rigidity. The original leather straps were cleaned and conditioned. All the straps are strong and sturdy. Of course, all of this was in addition to the new leather upholstery. Our team decided to go with a slightly under-stuffed and minimalist look to the cushions to allow more visibility to the stunning rosewood frame. The black leather compliments the strapping and rosewood frame. The button tufting pattern we chose adds a subtle tailored look in accordance to the overall atmosphere of this rare and iconic chair.
A striking example of mid-century Brazilian design, this sling lounge chair with matching ottoman was designed by Sergio Rodrigues for ISA (Industria de Moveis e Artefatos de Madeira), circa 1960s. The frame is masterfully constructed from richly grained Brazilian rosewood (jacaranda), known for its depth of tone and sculptural beauty.
The design features a relaxed, sling-style seat and ottoman suspended in a bold architectural frame — a hallmark of Rodrigues’ work. The set has been newly upholstered in supple black leather, offering a fresh, refined contrast to the warmth of the rosewood while staying true to the original spirit of the piece. The new leather enhances both the visual impact and the longevity of the design.
Wood dowel hardware and joinery add a touch of understated luxury, further highlighting the fine craftsmanship that defines this piece. A timeless blend of comfort and sophistication, this lounge set exemplifies Rodrigues’ pioneering role in shaping Brazilian Modernism.
Sheriff chair 43” Wide x 36” Deep x 28.5” High (14” seat height)
