A Brief History of the Shelf
Long before it became the sleek piece of furniture we know today, the shelf was simply a raw wooden plank fixed in kitchens or workshops to keep tools within reach. It gained its prestige in the 18th century, known as a "gradin," making its way into living rooms to display precious bindings or fine porcelain. Its structure, without doors or side panels, makes it the lightest piece of furniture in the house, a minimalist feat that frees up floor space while decorating walls. Today, it no longer just serves for storage, but for staging our daily lives, transforming a utilitarian surface into a living tableau that breathes and lets light circulate.
