Brazil Baroque, Inc.

To Brazil Baroque, a Santa Barbara, CA company that manufactures furniture with only reclaimed and recycled hardwoods, the current eco buzz words recycle, sustainability and green have been at the core of the business's mission ever since it was started over five years ago by designer and architect Andrea Fonseca.

Considered an industry leader before her time among eco-friendly manufacturers, Ms. Fonseca began to bring her vision to life when she moved to the United States and started designing furniture for Santa Barbara residents.

Delighted clients spread the word, and since then, the company has grown to include over 1500 meticulously handcrafted items while staying at the forefront of green conscientiousness.

Passionate about her company's responsibility to be a part of the solution to global warming rather than part of the problem, Ms. Fonseca turned to her native country of Brazil for her main resource woods reclaimed throughout the countryside from abandoned farms and haciendas.

Built on site, these abandoned structures were crafted from some of the most exotic woods that once proliferated in Brazil. Destruction of massive areas of Brazilian rainforests has put the existence of many exotic woods in jeopardy.

Today, skilled artisans and craftsmen use these reclaimed woods to transform former walls, floors and ceilings into original one-of-a-kind works of art, including chairs, hutches, tables, beds, lighting, flooring, architectural elements and more.

We are committed to preserving Brazil's rainforests by using only reclaimed hardwoods for our wood products and will continue to strive to use manufacturing techniques that cause little or no harm to the environment while still producing the some of the world's highest quality custom made furniture and accessories.
