The Shop

The Cunhas Warehouses are housed in a magnificent Art Deco style building by the architect Manuel Marques (1890-1956) and his associates Amoroso Lopes and Coelho Freitas. They combined three 19th century buildings on a single Art Deco façade. It is easily recognized by the open feathered peacock on the facade of the building. Centennial warehouses in downtown Porto specialize in household items such as bedspreads, tablecloths, bed and bath sets, blankets, men’s and women’s interiors and also a large assortment of white gowns, maid robes and school gowns . The furniture is original making the visit to this shop an extraordinary trip to the past.
