A rosewood patchwork top rests over one concrete base finished with soft nubuck leather.
This patchwork solution is present in other pieces designed by Zalszupin. Modern design taught us about using the material rationally, having the design as a tool to void waste. Aesthetically, the patchwork explores the different tones of the Brazilian rosewood beautifully, achieving a unique result.
At the time, the Guanabara table was presented as a dynamic piece that could be used in the corporate spaces (as a meeting table) and the domestic places (as a dining table). Today, we still recognize its versatility, a mark of good design.
This stunning piece has an oval top in very good vintage condition, with light tones of Rosewood. The this corners give an extra charm to the piece.
