The modern forest management concept “mothers, daughters and granddaughters” inspired the creation of this trio of bookshelves: the highest piece would correspond to the oldest tree, the middle one would correspond to the daughter, and the smallest to the granddaughter. All close to each other, to ensure the preservation of the forest. Each bookshelf was originally made from an exotic, native wood, such as roxinho wood and breu wood, to represent the diversity in the forest. The pieces can be sold separately, constructed from different types of wood.

ETEL CARMONA

In 1985, she launched ETEL, producing furniture designed by renowned designers and artists, the only company in the country re-issuing Brazilian modernist furniture, contributing to preserve and cherish this important legacy. 

Since 1999, Etel has been involved in sustainable projects using certified wood from responsibly managed forests in the Amazon region, as well as the empowerment and development of professional skills of forest populations. In 2001, ETEL was one of the first furniture companies in Brazil to be awarded the FSC® - Forest Stewardship Council® certification.
