This Rosewood Credenza, designed by Jorge Zalszupin (1922-2020) and manufactured by L'Atelier in the 1960s, is a great way to have the diversity of different tones of Rosewood in just one piece.
This credenza is part of a series with several options of elements presented as "modulated units." The clients could choose how to assemble it to create the final furniture piece according to their taste: the number of drawers, doors, and shelves, or opt for specific compartments, such as units for radio speakers.
The credenza is entirely covered with rectangular pieces of marquetry wood, a creative resource developed by Zalszupin. The technique consists of gluing several pieces of rosewood veneers of different textures and shades on a furniture surface, forming a beautiful wood patchwork. This feature allows large surfaces to be coated with a better unit, making it easier to combine different furniture.
