During furniture shows, you would think that modern and new furniture that are offered in the market would perhaps garner all the attention. But apparently, there are people who have an eye out for antiques and apparently that is the case when most people paid more attention towards the antique furniture that was on hand at the Woodland Handicraft Industries’ furniture fair at Muslim library in Bistupur.

There are still some people who prefer the old-fashioned style of furniture designs and many of them are aching to get their own for their homes. Today we are encouraged to live in a space-saving manner. It just so happens that some people have the luxury and space for such classical antiques that are still available in the market today.

The furniture has been designed based on Kashmiri art, Rajasthani art, Gujarati art, Portugal art and Mughal art. The carvings on the wood depend upon the art.

“The difference in look is due to the type of carvings. The carvings for Kashmiri art are more fine compared to the Portugal ones. In traditional furniture carvings narrate a story. We have modified the designs a bit to appeal to customers who want a touch of modernism,” said Ahmed.

eBuffet Unveils New Dining Room Sideboards

We all know that plastic has been hit hard by the eco-friendly practices today but you cannot discount the fact that compared to traditional furniture, putting hard plastic to use is way better that throwing them away.

The Shanghai Riddle looks a lot like the glorified and designed mono block chairs, made of hard plastic furniture that some people are turning to when it comes to chairs and stools. The Shanghai Riddle is quite deceiving. Thanks to a different type of design, they are made to look like wooden chairs but are actually hard plastic which homes can use since they are more affordable and lighter to move around.

Baas’ interpretation comes in the form of hand-carved elm replicas of plastic mass-produced furniture, highlighting the contrast between treasured Chinese handcraft and contemporary, mass-produced and mass consumed. As with all Baas’ work the unlikely aesthetic is humorous but thought-provoking rather than gratuitous.

Sitting on the Shanghai Riddle Interiors

We all have our own perception of how to design our homes and this would normally bank on culture and tradition. While many of us today are leaning towards the contemporary and modern home designs, some folks insist that the best way to define modern home designs would be the ones that suit their ancestral roots.

The Chinese for instance have appealing lines of defining home designs. It may be old school for most but if you set the proper places and moods, you will be surprised at the wonders a heritage can bring to your home ambiance.

“This is the Chinese way of home luxury we should cherish, instead of blindly adoring expensive foreign designs,” says Zhou, who has spent his life collecting and developing classic Chinese furniture. “Once you get more knowledge on our (Chinese) traditional furniture, you will be more amazed by its beauty.”
