This game table was produced by the Brazilian Forma S.A. Móveis e Objetos de Arte in the 1950s. The piece is made of a Rosewood structure and the top can be used on both sides: one in Rosewood veneers, and other covered in a gorgeous green fleece.
A very versatile piece that can be transformed into a game in a few seconds.
In 1955, the pioneer company Móveis Artesanal, founded by Carlo Hauner in 1950 (who later partnered with Martin Eisler and Ernesto Wolf), changed the name to Forma S.A. Móveis e Objetos de Arte. The purpose was to make the company more attractive to the business market, which was rapidly developing. Forma S.A. Móveis e Objetos de Art manufactured a few icons of Brazilian design history, such as the Costela Armchair designed by Eisler and the iconic chair that illustrates Móveis Artesanal's logotype designed by Hauner.
The Rosewood is unrestored, but the piece received a new fleece.
