Chico Margarita is a Brazilian woodworking artist based
in Embu da Artes, a municipality in São Paolo, Brazil. He is
specialised in the art of wood marquetry, a craft that goes
back as far as Ancient Egyptian times. Chico was trained
as an industrial chemical engineer, but after an extensive
and years long training in woodworking, he decided to
devote his life to his art. In 2017, he and his wife Luiza
founded a woodworking studio that is the birthplace of the
most exclusive and one-of-a-kind wooden furniture, lamps,
folding screens… .
In 2021, Chico Margarita started working with Gardeco,
creating exclusively for them exquisite handcrafted wooden
wall panels. Purchasing a Chico Margarita product means
contributing to the restoration of Brazil’s Atlantic Forest, as
one tree per product sold will be replanted in this amazing
rainforest. All Chico products contain natural raw materials
and legal origin wood only.
