"Concha" Sofa by Carlo Hauner and Martin Eisler, Modern Brazilian Design, 1950s
About the Item
Designed by Carlo Hauner and Martin Eisler, modern Brazilian sofa, iron, and velvet. Brazil, circa 1950s.
Shell or "Concha" sofa is made of iron and recently reupholstered in yellow velvet by the experienced craftsmen in our team. The upholstery was chosen considering the contemporary proposal of the piece.
The sofa features a comfortable seat, clean design, and freedom of user movements and is constructed in a frame with metal rods elegantly positioned to give strength to the piece, a common trait of designers.
The buttons velvet coated between seat and backs were used, by the designers, for an excellent velvet finish, and the restoration proposal was to maintain them.
Martin Eisler and Carlo Hauner were the primary designers for the iconic Brazilian furniture company, Forma. Their work spans four countries and several decades. And, their abundance is left to discover, through their exceptional, unique works that are already highly sought as examples of the vibrant modern movement in South America.
