Brasilia II Dining Set: Table, 6 Chairs, 2-pc China Cabinet

Description

This dining room set from the iconic Brasilia line screams mid-century modern. The simple lines combined with the arches make this a classic. The tables seats 6 with a leaf. The matching breakfront features bent wood accents and arched brass handles. Unmistakably Brasilia and so beautiful. Plenty of storage with three dovetailed drawers and two cabinets. Can be used as a credenza, server or console table, or with the "breakfront deck" top as a china cabinet. Well constructed and no structural damage. In good condition, but it could use some danish oil, and the seats would look great reupholstered. Must see. Buy both for $1000.

Will sell separately. 
Table and chairs: $595
Credenza/Cabinet: $695

History
The signature lines and waves of Brasilia furniture were inspired by the distinct architecture of the city of Brasilia, the capital of Brazil. When viewing the architecture of Brasilia, it is clear to see the inspiration in the design of the Broyhill Brasilia line of furniture. This line was first featured at the Seattle World’s Fair in 1962 representing the city of Brasilia. These unique pieces were created throughout the 1960’s in various forms.
