Founded in São Paulo by Etel Carmona and now led by her daughter Lissa Carmona, Etel is the only design house authorized to re-edit some of Brazil’s most significant modernist furniture, from José Zanine Caldas and Gregori Warchavchik to Oscar Niemeyer and contemporary architects such as Arthur de Mattos Casas and Isay Weinfeld. Every piece leaving its São Paulo workshop is built from FSC-certified native hardwoods, making Etel the first furniture maker in Brazil to earn that certification.

The Cuca Armchair takes its playful name from Andrea, the nickname of one of José Zanine Caldas’s six children, each of whom lent their name to a piece from the furniture line he designed in the 1950s for his own workshop, Móveis Artísticos Z, in São José dos Campos. Brought back into production by Etel at the end of 2016, the armchair’s frame is offered in ebonized, natural or aged Freijó wood, with seating upholstered in fabric or leather, a warm, family-rooted counterpoint to Zanine’s later, more brutal ‘protest furniture’ carved from raw tree trunks.
