Rosewood table "Pétalas" by Jorge Zalszupin for L’Atelier, Brazil, mid-century.

Coffee table “Pétalas”, designed by Jorge Zalszupin for L’Atelier in Brazil, around 1959. The table is composed of eight petal-shaped elements made of curved plywood, finished with rosewood veneer, arranged radially around a central iron structure. Together, these individual sections form a circular composition, resembling a flower, giving the piece its distinctive sculptural character. The curved surfaces highlight the natural grain and tonal variations of the rosewood, while the repetition of petal shapes creates a balance between geometric order and organic movement. Its low proportions and generous diameter allow for appreciation of the radial construction from different angles. The design reflects Zalszupin's exploration of expressive forms through moulded plywood, combining the warmth of wood with a carefully crafted structural solution. It brings together material richness, technical experimentation, and an organic vocabulary associated with Brazilian modern design. Dimensions: Diameter 130 × H 32 cm.
