Antique Teak Wood Glass Almirah 15

In another life, this almirah stood in a room where the things worth displaying were placed behind glass and left to be seen. That life left its mark on every surface. The teak is bleached sandy by decades of light.

This antique Indian teak almirah is display in its purest form, full glass-panel doors, four open interior shelves, a ball-foot base, and a stepped cornice at the crown. The teak has bleached to a soft sandy grey, the interior planked back showing knots and natural grain through the glass. Nothing is concealed. Nothing is dressed up. Just the wood and what you choose to place within it.

Sourced from India by hand. Original brass handle. No restoration.

For a living room or dining room where display is a considered practice. A bedroom piece for the collector who edits carefully.
