Designed by Percival Lafer during the 1970s and produced in Brazil, the MP-129 lounge chair is one of the designer's most recognizable creations. Defined by its exposed hardwood structure, suspended seating system, and generous proportions, the chair perfectly embodies the relaxed comfort and innovative engineering that made Lafer an international icon of Brazilian modern design.
The chair is built around a solid Brazilian jatobá frame with broad architectural arms that emphasize its clean horizontal profile. The seat and back cushions are suspended by leather support straps, allowing the upholstery to float within the structure while providing exceptional comfort and flexibility. Exposed hardware and carefully resolved joinery celebrate the construction rather than concealing it, a hallmark of Percival Lafer's design philosophy.
This example has been professionally reupholstered in premium dark green leather. The rich forest green tone pairs beautifully with the warmth of the hardwood frame, creating a sophisticated palette that feels both distinctly seventies and remarkably contemporary.
Presented in excellent restored condition, the chair is structurally sound and ready for daily use. The fresh upholstery highlights the sculptural character of the design while respecting the original proportions and comfort of the model.
An outstanding example of Brazilian modern furniture, the MP-129 combines honest construction, luxurious materials, and exceptional comfort into one of Percival Lafer's most enduring lounge chair designs.
