Available today, this Brazilian mid-century modern pipe holder was designed by Jean Gillon for WoodArt and made in Brazil in the 1960’s. Handcrafted from hard rosewood (also known as jacaranda), the pipe holder features clean lines with elegant curves. The rosewood is a deep, dark, and rich tone with stunning natural wood grain.
Jean Gillon was a Brazilian furniture designer born in Romania in 1919. He studied at the Architecture and Fine arts Schools at the National University. After immigrating to São Paulo, Brazil in 1956, he founded his first company, Fábrica de Móveis Cidam, in 1961. Gillon’s firm designed many luxury hotels, homes, and stores throughout Brazil. He was known for his one of a kind tapestries. His second furniture company, WoodArt, produced full lines of Brazilian rosewood furniture and objects-utilizing upholstery and leather.
