Description

This filing cabinet was designed by Jorge Zalszupin in the 1960s and consists of two drawers with leather handles and four wooden legs in patchwork style. The rosewood patchwork (collage using several pieces of rosewood, with different tones) was one of Zalszupin’s most characteristic traits. This was an initiative for the rationalization and use of left-over scraps of wood available at the factory. This type of office furniture was meant to address the growing demand for office furniture in the new capital Brasilia.
