We value using certified and quality wood. In addition to the aesthetic beauty of licensed native raw materials, density is an important factor in choosing the wood species we select. This physical characteristic makes it possible to increase the quality of the finishes, improve the precision of the cuts and guarantee excellent durability of the furniture. We know that having a quality raw material available is not enough to have a good finished product, that's why we seek to work only with woodworkers who have dedicated their lives to working with wood. Excellent professionals who have know-how capable of substantially transcending technical limitations and making possible the development of each of the products developed in wood.
We are proud to work with experienced professionals and in the case of finishing, we entrust our pieces only to professionals who carry decades of experience in painting. Only time can make a professional reference of what he does, eyes that can see what many eyes do not see, hands that carry skills acquired not only by repetition but by the passion to make a product a finished piece. The precision of the application of each fan that comes out of the spray gun, the thorough review of each product surface, are characteristics that we observe and value, as we know that the finish is an important aspect of the relationship between people and objects.
Moema, Victor Meirelles, 1866.
“Copiosa multidão da nau Francesa
Corre a ver o espetáculo assombrada;
E ignorando a ocasião da estranha empresa,
Pasma da turba feminil, que nada:
Uma, que às mais precede em gentileza,
Não vinha menos bela, do que irada:
Era Moema, que de inveja geme,
E já vizinha à nau se apega ao leme.”
Caramuru, Santa Rita Durão, 1781, Canto VI.
As time went on, the name Moema has always been used, along with other words of Tupi origin, to name cities, places, and people. This rich linguistic universe seeks to rescue indigenous names as a symbol that stands for the appreciation of Brazilian culture and all the native historicity. About the association of the table to the character from the poem written by Friar Santa Rita Durão, we emphasize the influence of the brilliant work of art from Victor Meirelle, named “Moema”, as an endless source of aesthetic elements. Lastly, we can say that in both formal and conceptual aspects, our Moema dinner table seeks to be a piece that is born Brazilian as a whole.
