Rosewood Wall Bookshelf by Celina Decorações, Brazilian Mid-Century, 1960s

About the Item

Produced in the 1960s by Celina Decorações, this wall bookshelf has a minimalist design, enhanced by its beautiful rosewood veneers. It has three shelves with “T”-shaped lateral details that provide stability as well as personality. Founded in 1938 in Rio de Janeiro, Celina Decorações became a cornerstone of Brazilian modernist furniture design under Munis Zilberberg’s leadership. The company gained national prominence by blending industrial production with artisanal craftsmanship. Zilberberg’s innovative contributions to A Cigarra magazine elevated Celina’s influence, using the platform to offer interior design advice and showcase aspirational settings. This approach democratized modern aesthetics while cementing Celina Decorações’ role as a trailblazer in Brazilian design culture. The wall bookshelf has been fully restored and is in great condition.
