Brazilian mid-century designers favored organic structures that combined both Bauhaus and Scandinavian references with traditional local craftsmanship. This lounge chair from the 1960s was produced in Brazil - though unclear as to designer. It uses solid steam bend oakwood frame with a double layer at the base connected by wood support structures. Low slung with a curved and arched back. Classic brass pins connect the beautiful contrasting stitched leather strapping to the frame. Pair of loose cushions. Exceptional design.
