About the Item

Introduce a touch of sophistication to your living space with this exceptional armchair, designed by renowned architect Rino Levi. Crafted in Brazil during the 1960s by Móveis Ambiente, this set is a testament to masterful craftsmanship. The armchair showcases a perfectly balanced design, featuring a stunning minimal backrest made of four sleek solid Caviuna wood slats. The fluid tapered legs and slim armrests are meticulously executed, with flawless joints. The beautiful wood grain and patina add to its overall allure, while the new textured mohair enhances its visual appeal. The chair is in great wear condition, attesting to their durability and the upholstery is new. Rino Levi specifically designed this model chair for use in his architectural residence projects, adding an extra layer of uniqueness. This can be shown in the vintage publications attached. About the designer: Rino Levi (1901-1965) was a Brazilian architect who played a pivotal role in solidifying the mid-century Modernist movement in Brazilian architecture and design. Studying architecture in Milan and Rome, Levi brought an innovative approach to the movement, merging elegance with functionality. Levi advocated for simplicity, finding beauty in organic shapes and sculptural forms. His usage of traditional Brazilian wood further encapsulated the essence of Brazilian mid-century design. Levi's designs incorporated natural shapes and raw materials reflective of the contemporary movement and urban terrain. Inspired by the inherent beauty of Brazil, Levi introduced a distinct style loyal to Brazilian Modernism- one prevalent in both his architecture and furniture designs.
