About This Piece

Vintage Design

Ouro Preto Armchair and Ottoman, by Michel Arnoult for Mobilia Contemporanea, 1958.
Solid Imbuia, Nylon and upholstery.

Like many other European designers, Michel Arnoult arrived from his native France in the 1950’s. In the midst of the modernist and developmentalist movement in Brasil, in association with Abel de Barros Lima and Norman Est Water he creates Mobilia Contemporanea, specializing in producing beautiful modern modular furniture, in series and at affordable prices.
The Ouro Preto armchair, with its solid turned Imbuia structure and loose cushion over tense nylon strands, is completely dismountable, one of the main characteristics of Michel Arnoults work.
Smart, light, and extremely confortable, this easy-going chair is a classic modern piece.
