About the Item
Set of 6 De Couro Black Leather Dining Chairs – Brazilian Modern Icons (1980s)
A rare and elegant set of six dining chairs from Brazil, this collection by De Couro of Brazil represents a refined example of late 20th-century South American design. Produced in the 1980s, these chairs echo the modernist ethos of form meeting function—bridging sculptural minimalism with artisanal craftsmanship.
Structural Purity, Leather-Wrapped Architecture
Each chair is constructed with a steel internal frame and fully wrapped in thick, saddle-grade black leather, including the squared backrest, seat, and all four legs. The upholstery is hand-stitched, creating a seamless silhouette that recalls the essence of the Cassina CAB 413 chair by Mario Bellini.
Like the CAB, the De Couro chair treats leather not as a cover but as an integral design element—a skin stretched over a skeleton. Like the CAB’s signature zippered seams, these chairs opt for a subtler stitching approach, reinforcing their handmade quality and sculptural restraint.
Aged Character, Authentic Patina
The leather on these chairs shows a well-developed natural patina, including surface scuffs, tonal variation, and marks—all consistent with over 40 years of age and considered part of their vintage charm. One chair has a cracked seat plate, which does not affect the seating comfort or structural integrity. The set remains fully functional, tactile, and visually striking.

Condition
The leather on these chairs shows a well-developed natural patina, including surface scuffs, tonal variation, and marks—all consistent with over 40 years of age and considered part of their vintage charm. One chair has a crack in the seat plate, which does not affect the seating comfort or structural integrity. It is replaceable with ease, but not essential to do so. The set remains fully functional, tactile, and visually striking.
