TWENTY-FIVE SHELVING UNIT 6 SHELVES
TWENTY-FIVE SHELVING UNIT 6 SHELVES
Designed by De La Espada Atelier
Twenty-Five Shelving Unit emerged from diverse influences ranging from Chinese Ming dynasty shelving to timber sculpting details seen in Brancusi sculptures and Hans Wegner chairs.
Designed for flexibility, the Twenty-Five Shelving Unit is available in a range of sizes, and, with the exception of the fixed top and bottom shelves, each shelf is adjustable with a hidden mechanism.
Hex keys with beautiful cork handles are stored in the base of the shelving unit, so the shelves may be easily adjusted at any time. Brass brackets allow the unit to be secured to the wall.
DESIGNERS
DE LA ESPADA ATELIER
De La Espada Atelier is the De La Espada in-house design team, led by Simon Kämpfer.
The product range is influenced by the Arts and Crafts movement and mid-century Scandinavian design combined with the rich craft heritage of Portugal.
The expertise in design, craft and retail that De La Espada has gained over more than 25 years is revealed in furniture that is quiet and intricately detailed, functional and versatile, luxuriously tactile, and at once international and rooted in the home of our dedicated factory.
“We have the first pieces designed by our own Atelier, which will be dedicated to exploring historical periods that interest the firm, to carry out research when it comes to both traditional craft techniques and new materials, and to explore new typologies,” Luis De Oliveira, co-founder of De La Espada.

Timber is sustainable solid wood from North America or Europe, offering long-term repairability of the surface. Natural colour and grain variations in every plank make each piece an individual. Traditional wood joinery bonded with wood glue ensures structural integrity. All finishes are non-toxic and applied by hand, sprayed or rubbed.
FINISHES
TIMBER
Solid wood is an expression of the life of a tree, grown for at least 30 years, and the weather patterns it experienced, the absorption of sunshine and minerals. The tree is imbued with meaning, and this meaning is transferred to the piece of furniture it becomes. Our planks are cut in a way that honours the growth rings and grain, making them clearly visible.
AMERICAN BLACK WALNUT
Our American black walnut is from the midwestern United States. This is a prized hardwood with luxuriously figurative grain patterns and great strength. The walnut tree is relatively small, and the dark heartwood is surrounded by sap wood that is blond in colour. Our American black walnut timber is available in a choice of oil finishes. Our Danish oil, white oil, and black oil finishes provide a renewable surface for enduring beauty.
EUROPEAN ASH
Our European Ash is from Portugal, Spain and France. European Ash is a hardwood that has long been prized by cabinetmakers due to its versatility and simple beauty. This dense timber has a coarse yet even texture, compressive strength, and an appealing straight grain. It varies in colour from a cream to pale tan colour and accepts stains and coatings more readily than other timbers. Our European ash timber is available in a choice of oil, painted, or stained finishes. Our Danish oil, white oil, and black oil finishes provide a renewable surface for enduring beauty.
AMERICAN WHITE OAK
Our American white oak is from the eastern coast of the United States. Oak has long been used in furniture due to its great density, outstanding durability and simple, understated beauty. Its durability is comp. Our American white oak timber is available in a choice of oil finishes, or an oxidised finish. Our Danish oil, white oil, and black oil finishes provide a renewable surface for enduring beauty. Damage can be repaired with relative ease, as the timber can be reapplied with wax or oil at any moment. Our oxidised timber is sealed with a clear matte lacquer to maintain the colour whilst preserving the tactility of the surface.
PAINTED EUROPEAN ASH
Our painted timber is available in a choice of 10 paint colours.
STAINED EUROPEAN ASH
Our stained timber is available in a choice of 10 colours. The stain is sealed with a clear matte lacquer to maintain the colour whilst preserving the tactility of the surface.
