Mid-Century Modern Walnut Bookcase Cabinet Painted Panels by Hubert Minnebo
Located in Casteren, Noord-Brabant
A long mid century bookcase made of walnut veneer. The cabinet has three aluminum painted panels with fishes. Created and signed and dated (1966) by Hubert Minnebo (Belgium, 1940). The cabinet has 3 doors. Left and right are glass sliding doors. The cabinet has onea key, which fits on all three doors. The condition is good, except for a few missing pieces of wood veneer. The video shows the veneer flaws.
The painted panels are made of anodized aluminum. It is a technique that aluminum is anodized, the aluminium panel can absorb aniline color pigments; these are color pigments that are dissolved in acetone or dimethyl formamide. This requires smooth work, comparable to painting a fresco, where correction of errors is not possible. Minnebo also made this panels aluminum panels for reception halls and house facades and as decoration in restaurants and stations. His work is refined with a controlled use of colours.
Free shipping for purchase in Europe
The oeuvre of sculptor, jewelery designer and graphic artist Hubert Minnebo has been in the spotlight for fifty years. Not in the front row, but also indispensable. Between realism and idealization. Without overestimation, and with an unmistakable noblesse d'âme. This monograph charts Minnebo's remarkable artistic journey and is generously illustrated with photographs of his life and work. Well-known critics and several artists and friends of Minnebo are collaborating: Octave Landuyt...

Contas Round Swivel Bookcase: handmade in Brazil with cabreuva wood and ceramic
Located in Jundiaí, SP
All the levels of this round bookcase, made of cabreuva hardwood, are permeated by buriti palms yarns with ceramic beads, creating different compositions depending on the angle we look at it. All the soft colored shades of the ceramic come from the clay itself, stones and plants of the Jequitinhonha Valley, a Brazilian region known by its traditional ceramic craftwork.
The designer Maria Fernanda Paes de Barros spent some time there researching their art and the way they live. The inspiration to design this bookcase came from the curtains used to decorate their houses and also by the poetry written by Deuzani Gomes dos Santos, the artisan who received her in her home.
It is part of the Records of Time collection, whose inspiration came from an immersion period lived by the designer Maria Fernanda Paes de Barros at the artisans community, Coqueiro Campo, researching the materials and the origins of this Brazilian traditional craftwork, listening to the valley's stories and learning the artisans way of living.
This bookcase, and all the pieces produced by Yankatu are numbered and accompanied by its soul, a small book that tells about the inspiration that gave birth to it and leaves blank pages so that its story can continue to be told by those who acquire it, turning it into something more, which does not change with fashion, which does not go by with time. To the contrary, it will move on from a generation to another, from hand to hand, each time with more stories to tell, each time incorporating the lives shared by it.
The wood comes from nature, each one is unique, with its veins, knots and tones. Because it is a natural material it suffers with the climate change, so cracks an shifts in color may emerge over time. The wood can also warp sometimes due to a large variation in relative humidity of the air. This aren’t defects on the contrary, all of this is considered normal.
All the handmade details in this round swivel bookcase...
