Brazilian Modern Set of 4 Chairs in Rosewood & Leather, Celina, 1960s

Each dining chair features a structure in Brazilian rosewood with four delicate long legs with the backrest in caning and the seat in its original ultra suede upholstery. The wood has been refinished and displays colorful veins that make the chair look almost alive. The caning is new for two chairs and original for the other two. This set perfectly represents the Brazilian Modernist movement in the sixties: straight lines, leather, and abundance in the use of hardwood.

Designer Bio:
In 1951, Munis Zilberberg took over the family's small upholstery workshop and renamed it Celina Decoracoes in honor of his mother, Celina Zilberberg.

With his takeover came a new philosophy and approach to business, with Celina Decoracoes striving to become a modern store that created its designs. The company embraced the idea of "interior architecture" and offered complete ambiance to the public using their furniture. To launch itself, Celina Decoracoes utilized mass communication vehicles.

Celina Decorações had stores across São Paulo and Rio de Janeiro. In addition to producing pieces in series, they also made customizations in their furniture to meet the interior projects offered to their customers.
