This white tiger was used as a decorative piece in Mrs. Theolina Junqueira’s home. More than a symbol of strength, it helped create a mysterious and striking atmosphere in the main living room. Archival photographs show Sinhá Junqueira standing beside this piece.
This cabinet, handcrafted and richly detailed with carved woodwork, was used to store coats, hats, and umbrellas. The piece remains displayed in the same location it occupied when Theolina Junqueira lived in the mansion.
