This chair was designed in 1952 by Jacob Ruchti for the Brazilian collective Branco & Preto which was set up by
a group of visionary architects in São Paulo in the fifties. Production runs were kept small. Instead, emphasis was placed on high-quality craftmanship and use of the best Brazilian wood. Their furniture expressed simplicity and lightness through the use of geometric patterns and lines.
