One of the clues contained in the chairs are the manufacturing and distribution labels of the furniture, when preserved. From the labels we were able to identify the place of production of this furniture, primarily produced in the south and southeast of the country, as well as in the distribution and trade networks, in Fortaleza, by local companies, and beyond. A relevant example of these aspects are the objects related to the Fábrica de Móveis Cimo, a company in Santa Catarina that operated from 1913 to 1982. This factory produced a variety of furniture for schools, auditoriums and offices. Despite the emphasis, for example, on the production of chairs for cinema halls, many desks and chairs in common use in the University's administrative bodies are from this company, constituting the largest number of examples in the Collection. In addition to documenting objects of daily use at the University, these furniture are examples of the evolution of industrial production, with the oldest chairs being produced in solid wood (probably from forest extraction), being, over time, replaced by wood from reforestation. and plywood.
