Sculptural and timeless, the Cantu Dining Chair is one of the earliest works by the Brazilian master, Sergio Rodrigues. It was awarded at the IV Furniture Bienal in Italy in 1961 and formed part of the original interior project for Brasília, Brazil’s modernist capital.
A classic icon in Brazilian mid-century design, the Cantu is light, and composed of a base frame in cherry wood, wrapped in leather.

The "Katita" chair combines classic and sinuous lines in its playful base, with a rigid element for its backrest. Sophisticated and unexpected, whimsical features, such as Rodrigues' signature circle cutouts, make the "Katita" a truly unique piece representative of Rodrigues' idiosyncratic aesthetics.
Named after Lucio Costa, the acclaimed Brazilian architect who worked along Oscar Niemeyer on the development of Brasília, the 'Lucio' dining chair is a classic icon in Brazilian design. Simple and timeless, it combines modernist and regional elements.
