It gained recognition in the 18th century under the name "display shelf," making its way into living rooms to showcase precious bindings or fine porcelain. Its structure, without doors or side panels, makes it the lightest piece of furniture in the house, a feat of minimalism that frees up floor space while dressing the walls. Today, it is no longer just for storage but serves to stage our daily lives, transforming a utilitarian surface into a true living tableau that breathes and allows light to flow.
