Indian Interiors

Brass thaal (plate) with fragrant flowers on a chowki. In the center is an incense stick holder


A pichwai from Nathdwara school of painting. Chair upholstered in raw silk


Diwan (daybed) and wooden statue of Garuda-(thanks blackmamba!)


Room held together by the colorful dhurrie (rug)


A different genre of Indian home interiors with elegant furniture and rich fabrics




The lamp seems to have lacquer on brass... Block printed cushions with a rich throw

Silver coated, or quite possibly silver frame mirror

I will bring you more images from Henry's amazing work through the years capturing India, and Indian interiors, next week.

For now, I am off to London and Dusseldorf for a quick work trip..
