Giuseppe Scapinelli, an Italian born designer active in São Paulo, worked extensively with native Brazilian hardwoods, developing a body of furniture that combined European cabinetmaking training with forms drawn from local material availability. His production is documented within the broader context of Brazilian modern furniture making of the 1950s and 1960s, alongside contemporaries who established wood based design practices in the postwar period.
The piece has been restored by our specialized workshop in São Paulo.
