Mar
Signed designer piece : Regis Padilha
The Mar armchair has straight and angled lines proposing a geometric contrast of modern style, which was introduced in Brazil in the 1950s and 1960s. Designer Regis Padilha selected the jequitibá wood for its mechanical properties as well as the clean and homogeneous visual it provides. The finish is a colourless matte and polished only with natural oils. The ergonomic seat angle and backrest aligned with the curves make it highly comfortable for any living space.

Brazilian wood: Jequitibá
Jequitibá wood originates in South and Central America, including Brazil, Venezuela, and Colombia. Commonly found in forests growing on lower slopes and well-watered valleys. Its heartwood ranging in colour from light beige-tan, to reddish or purplish brown, sometimes with darker streaks usually not sharply distinguished from the pale brown sapwood. Its grain is straight to interlocked with moderate texture and sheen, without distinctive odor or taste. Jequitibá wood is very durable and has good resistance to dry-wood termite attacks.
