A Piece Inspired by Mid-Century Brazilian Design
Brazilian design is renowned for merging traditional craftsmanship with modern elements. The Jorge armchair is directly inspired by iconic pieces from the 1950s-1960s. Both minimalist and bold, it pays tribute to the clean lines and natural materials that define this style.
The frame is made of solid Brazilian Guajuvira wood, carefully chosen for its texture and durability. The slender legs, characteristic of mid-century style, are slightly angled to provide a sense of lightness. The design is simple, yet every detail has been crafted to combine comfort and aesthetics.

What truly sets the Jorge armchair apart is the quality of its handmade production. Crafted by Brazilian artisans, each piece is unique. Subtle variations in wood grain, leather tone, and finishes showcase the ancestral know-how passed down through generations. Each Jorge armchair is a one-of-a-kind piece, designed to bring character and authenticity to your space.
The fabric covering the armchair is carefully selected from Brazilian producers who meet strict standards of quality and sustainability. This material choice adds a touch of subtle luxury while remaining true to Rua Madeira’s responsible design philosophy.

The Jorge armchair isn’t just a decorative object; it’s primarily designed for exceptional comfort. Its deep seat, slightly reclined backrest, and ergonomic armrests offer an optimal seating experience. It’s a chair meant for everyday living, whether in a modern living room or a more classic interior.

 

The Jorge Armchair in Your Home
Whether your space is modern or more traditional, the Jorge armchair adapts effortlessly. Thanks to its clean lines and timeless design, it becomes the centerpiece of any room.
