Description
Beautifully restored Broyhill Brasilia dining set. This sought after Mid-Century Modern walnut dining set includes an expanding dining table and 8 dining chairs. The table is 66″ long and expands out to a maximum 102″ in length. Three 12″ leaves are included with the table to allow you to adjust the length. The dining chairs include a group of 6 armless side chairs and two captain’s chairs with arms. This group of eight chairs has been lovingly restored. The dining table is also refinished. We also have a credenza and room divider from the Broyhill Brasilia collection. The room divider and credenza are sold separately. Please inquire if you’re interested in more info on those pieces.
Broyhill’s Brasilia collection is one of the most sought after lines of American furniture from the period. These chairs highlight the best design element of Brasilia, Oscar Niemeyer’s signature oblong arches. Oscar Niemeyer was an architect before he was a furniture designer. This collection for Broyhill emulated many of the forms he used to create the buildings of Brazil’s capital, Brasilia.
The chairs and table have been delicately refinished to beautiful condition by our in-house restoration team. These chairs saw typical use over the years so the frames will still exhibit some imperfections throughout. They were detailed top to bottom and the patina has been preserved. Every seat has been professionally re-foamed and recovered in black faux leather material. Most importantly, each leg joint was spread, re-glued and clamp-set to ensure many more decades of rigidity. The table has been refinished. Only a few minor shadows are left behind from stubborn scratches. The scratches are not detectable to the touch and covered in multiple coats of hand-buffed finish. We’re certain you won’t find a nicer example of this table anywhere.
