Crafted from cerejeira hardwood, each chair features four gently curved legs, a sculpted seat, and a tall, supportive backrest that emphasizes verticality without heaviness.

The seats and backrests have been newly caned by our master caning specialist in Rio de Janeiro, using traditional methods that honor the original design. The caning introduces texture and visual lightness, a hallmark of Brazilian Modernism, while responding to the country’s climate through breathable materials. The wood has been professionally refinished, revealing a warm tone and consistent grain throughout the set.

Balanced, architectural, and highly functional, these chairs embody the Brazilian approach to modern dining—where comfort, craftsmanship, and subtle sophistication coexist. Their versatility allows them to integrate seamlessly into mid-century, contemporary, or eclectic interiors. See less
