About the Item

This refined 1950s desk exemplifies the Brazilian modernist pursuit of equilibrium between material honesty and formal lightness. The dual pedestals in solid jacarandá rosewood anchor the piece with architectural solidity, while the slender metal frame and floating top introduce a sense of suspension and clarity. The design’s restrained geometry and tactile richness echo the era’s dialogue between artisanal tradition and industrial innovation, resulting in a composition that is both pragmatic and sculptural.
