An iconic set of Esfera lounge chairs by Ricardo Fasanello, embodying the sculptural spirit of Brazilian modernism.
Esfera Lounge Chairs by Ricardo Fasanello, Brazil – Late 1960s
Description
Designed in the late 1960s, the Esfera lounge chairs by Brazilian designer Ricardo Fasanello rank among the most emblematic expressions of Space Age–influenced modern design. Conceived as immersive, spherical seating forms, the chairs are defined by their enveloping fiberglass shells and fluid silhouettes, balancing sculptural impact with a considered approach to comfort. Resting on circular swivel bases, the volumes appear both grounded and dynamic, allowing gentle rotation while reinforcing their architectural presence.
The shells are executed in molded fiberglass with a warm-toned finish, paired with generously contoured interior cushions upholstered in supple, light-toned leather. A pioneer in experimental materials, Fasanello explored fiberglass and synthetic resins extensively during this period, establishing the Esfera as a landmark of Brazilian modernism. Examples of this model are held in major institutional collections, underscoring its significance. This set is offered as a pair, presenting a rare opportunity to acquire an iconic and highly collectible design in unified form.
