Elaborately crafted, solid teak (India) bookcase with beautiful carving decorations. For this shelf made of shisham wood elements were used which once decorated Indian mansions. The carvings were part of entrances and balconies, which are now reused after demolition or decay of the houses. Many of the old houses are decaying, because of their size they are no longer used and renovated by their owners. The old and well preserved materials shine in new splendour this way.
