About the Item

Giuseppe Scapinelli, Set of 10 “Gravata” Dining Chairs, Brazil, 1950s Rare and exceptional set of ten “Gravata” dining chairs by Giuseppe Scapinelli, one of the most sophisticated and creative designers of the Brazilian modernist movement. These sculptural chairs showcase Scapinelli’s distinctive approach — elegant curves, impeccable joinery, and a harmonious balance between form and function. Crafted from solid Brazilian hardwood, each chair features the model’s signature “Gravata” (“tie”) backrest design, an emblematic detail of Scapinelli’s refined aesthetic. The set has been carefully restored, with new upholstery that complements the warmth and depth of the wood while maintaining the integrity of the original design. A rare opportunity to acquire a complete set of ten, ideal for collectors and admirers of mid-century Brazilian furniture.

Each item undergoes a rigorous evaluation process to ensure it represents the true essence of Brazilian modern design — craftsmanship, innovation, and timeless elegance. We are proud members of the Brazilian Modern Design Guild, a collective dedicated to preserving and promoting the integrity of Brazil’s design heritage. This affiliation reflects our ongoing commitment to authenticity, transparency, and excellence in every piece we offer. Collectors and design professionals can purchase with full confidence, knowing that every work in our collection is an authentic example of mid-century Brazilian design.
