The Euvira rocking chair by Jader Almeida is a masterful blend of yesterday and today, lightness and solidity. With its precisely orchestrated flowing lines, thickening and tapering to form a pleasing rhythm, the chair is a signature expression of contemporary design.

At the same time, the choice of materials and their treatment recalls the work of the great Brazilian design masters of the 1960s and 70s. While offering all the comfort of a capacious rocking chair, the piece’s fine lines and the way the armrests and runners taper towards the middle make an airy and elegant impression from any angle. The cord seat and backrest lend the chair a special lightness and transparency, unfolding a fascinating graphic play of lines especially when in motion. The version in dark stained oak with black cord attests the most strikingly to the origin of its designer. In pale oak with hemp-coloured cord, the chair looks almost like a Scandinavian furniture classic.

With fabric or leather upholstery, it takes on the feel of an elegant club chair. In every version, though, it oscillates effortlessly between past and present, stability and elegance.

Euvira has been recognised with the IF Product Design Award and the Red Dot Design Award.

Jader Almeida was born in 1981 in Santa Catarina in southern Brazil. At the age of 16 he already started gaining practical experience working in the local furniture industry. He later studied architecture and urban planning and then took a job with LinBrasil, which manufactures furniture conceived by well-known Brazilian architects and designers.

Working with typical Brazilian woods and types of leather proved seminal for Almeida’s future designs. He began developing his own exclusive products in 2004, initially for Sollos in Santa Catarina. Almeida has since then received a number of prestigious Brazilian and international design awards. Today he works as both product designer and architect, with his own studio in Florianapólis, Santa Catarina.

Jader Almeida: "It is my aim to create products of enduring value, drawing on the legacy of the great masters while always looking ahead and knowing that today’s decisions will have an impact on tomorrow. Rationality, simple geometry and attention to every detail help to create products with a timeless aesthetic."

The rocking chair Euvira, which ClassiCon added to its collection in 2013, has been awarded both the Red Dot and the IF Product Design Awards.

The ClassiCon brand stands for quality, individuality and a timeless aesthetic - regardless of passing fashions. More important than the degree of fame achieved by the designer is a demonstrated fascination with new formal concepts. This focus helps ClassiCon to continually discover exciting young designers.

In the early 1970s, Eileen Gray began to collaborate with Zeev Aram to develop her furniture and lamps for series production. In 1973 she signed a worldwide contract with Aram Designs, London, to bring her designs into production for the first time. ClassiCon produces and sells the Eileen Gray Collection as worldwide licensee of Aram Designs Ltd, London.

Each individual piece in the collection is indelibly marked and numbered consecutively.

The ClassiCon signature provides a guarantee that only high-grade materials and methods are used in production - meeting all ecological requirements - and that every piece of furniture has passed strict quality control. ClassiCon's logo offers the assurance that each limited edition is an authentic replica of the original, made with the consent of the rights holders.
