Indian Wax Lacquered Sheesham Wood 2 Drawer Tall Bookcase

Every inch of this colonial-influenced bookcase oozes class, from the bottom of its attractively carved plinth to the top of its elegantly tapered cornice. Skilled Indian artisans have handcrafted it from dark-toned sheesham wood using traditional techniques to ensure its durability and then finished it with a wax lacquer to bring out its unique charms. With four sturdy shelves for books or collectibles, it also has wrought iron portcullis work down each side to add visual interest and authentic detail and will work well in a wide range of decors.
The opulent lifestyles of the maharajas are purposely evident in this highly stylised interior range. Unashamedly intricate in detail, even ornate, the furniture nods towards its traditional roots whilst securing a gap in the modern market, appealing to the artisanal desires of the modern purveyor.
Whilst other interior genres champion a parred back aesthetic, Jali openly busks this trend with enhancing the natural beautiful grain with a stain and wax finish. An extensive range of chunky dining tables, dressers and coffee tables allows the theme to be carried through the house.
Traditional but relevant! The penchant for this desirable furniture is largely driven by a renewed appreciation for artisanal craftsmanship, a skill which has long be practiced in India. The yearning for a story behind items which fill the home is unrelenting and Jali fills that need, lovingly crafted by the latest generation to adapt this time honoured skill.
The Indian styling and the durability of the wood from which it is built, promises a furniture range with longevity.
