Since Etel Carmona founded her São Paulo workshop, Etel has built its reputation on a singular mission: safeguarding and re-editing the furniture of Brazil’s great modernist minds, José Zanine Caldas, Gregori Warchavchik and Oscar Niemeyer among them, while also producing new work with architects like Arthur de Mattos Casas and Isay Weinfeld. Now led by Lissa Carmona, the house remains committed to native, FSC-certified Brazilian hardwoods, having been the first in the country to earn that distinction.
The Circular Side Table was designed in 1928 by Gregori Warchavchik, the Odessa-born architect who, having settled in São Paulo, built the Casa Modernista on Rua Santa Cruz, the very first Modernist house in Brazil, a project so radical that Le Corbusier himself came to see it under construction. Etel’s re-edition of this small table, crafted in honey-toned Imbuia wood, preserves the precise geometry and Art Deco restraint with which Warchavchik launched an entirely new architectural language for his adopted country.
ETEL’s design collection comprises one century of Brazilian furniture. With its pioneering re-edition work, ETEL brings back graceful designs of the modern Brazilian production, discovered only recently, and now considered as one of the most relevant worldwide for that period. Pieces characterised by skilful handiwork and the use of exquisite materials were created by architects and artists intent on unveiling the local culture, under the influence of the international avant-garde. This retrieval is based on a strict methodology, faithfulness to the originals, and intensive collaboration with the institutes and families that represent each creator’s oeuvre. The collection includes pieces by Oscar Niemeyer, Lina Bo Bardi, Jorge Zalszupin, Giuseppe Scapinelli, among others.
