Introduce a touch of sophistication to your living space with this exceptional armchair and ottoman set, 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 ottoman follows the same balanced design and impeccable execution as the armchair, creating a cohesive and stylish set. Both the chair and ottoman frames are 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.

This set was acquired from a private residence in São Paulo, Brazil, making it a true treasure.
