Jorge Zalszupin Petalas Side Tables by L' Atelier circa 1960
Sublime pair of mid century Jorge Zalszupin ‘Petalas' Pau Ferro (Iron Wood) side tables manufactured by L' Atelier Brazil Sao Paolo circa 1960, the Petalas side tables are inspired by the folded paper structures of origami, the tables each composed of four folded petals of Brazilian Pau Ferro wood forming a unique and elegant free standing shape, each table with a wonderful rich figured grain, reserve now.
Concept: In the Petalas series Zalszupin plays with an organic form inspired by flower petals. The idea works both as a large octagonal table as well as in a smaller one made of only four elements. The restrictive geometric form has been interpreted in a poetic way. Petalas tables are captivating due to their clever construction and sensual shape, bringing to mind some of Neimeyer’s architectural forms, for instance Palácio da Alvorada in Brasilia.
Provenance: Private collection Brazil.
