Small bookcase/bookshelf/sideboard – Teperman, 1960s
Material: caviúna wood with ebonized legs.A piece of Brazilian design from the 1960s, produced by Teperman , a traditional São Paulo-based carpentry workshop recognized for its excellence in working with fine woods. Made of caviúna wood, it features striking grain and a satin finish that enhances the natural depth of the wood's amber tone.
The structure is formed by three horizontal planes arranged at asymmetrical heights , connected by a central vertical panel , creating open niches of different proportions. The design, with its clean geometry and balanced proportions, highlights the modernist pursuit of functionality and visual lightness.
The tapered, trapezoidal, and slightly inclined legs, crafted from ebonized wood , provide stability and elegance, characteristic of Brazilian production from that period.
This piece embodies the spirit of modern Brazilian furniture: rational, handcrafted, and refined in its execution. It can function as a bookcase, sideboard, or low shelf , adapting naturally to different interior design compositions.
