More From This SellerView All
  • Rococó Dresser: handcarved in Brazil in Red cedar wood
    By Maria Fernanda Paes de Barros
    Located in Jundiaí, SP
    This chest of drawers is made in solid pink cedar wood carved by the craftsman Rondinelly Santos, specialized in sacred art. The flowing design of the acanthus scrolls and leaves comes alive through the notch and runs through the five drawers of the dresser, uniting them subtly, creating an optical effect that makes the wood look soft. Entirely made of solid pink cedar, the dresser recovers, through the art of carving, the influence of the Rococo period in Brazil. Volutes, acanthus leaves and flower wreaths gracefully permeate the drawers, awakening our gaze and the desire to touch it. A multifunctional piece with a timeless design that values the Brazilian artisanal work. Carving wood is to transform it, rewriting its history through the hands. This is how each of the dressers in this limited series is born. In view of these characteristics all parts are numbered and produced to order. This is part of Yankatu's Artisans collection. To create them Maria Fernanda Paes de Barros researched the Brazilian colonial traditions in the historic city of Tiradentes, Minas Gerais. As all the pieces produced by Yankatu, is accompanied by its soul, a certificate of authenticity in the form of a small book that tells about the inspiration that gave birth to it and leaves blank pages so that its story can continue to be told by those who acquire it, turning it into something more, which does not change with fashion, which does not go by with time. To the contrary, it will move on from a generation to another, from hand to hand, each time with more stories to tell, each time incorporating the lives shared by it. The wood comes from nature, each one is unique, with its veins, knots and tones. Because it is a natural material it suffers with the climate change, so cracks and shifts in color may emerge over time. The wood can also warp sometimes due to a large variation in relative humidity of the air. This isn’t defects on the contrary, all of this is considered normal. The work is accompanied by a certificate of authenticity. Brazilian Contemporary and Collectible Design by Yankatu, design + art with Brazilian soul. The objects that appear in the pictures are not a part of the Rococo Dresser.
