Decor India-Inspirit Adore–Charpoy

Hi Friends, today ‘s post is inspired by a unique traditional  Indian Furniture  Called Charpai/charpoy, a four legged  bed( to know more about charpoy check  an interesting read)  . For me,  it is a treasured family heirloom.. Charpoy is one piece of furniture that I feel most of the Indians can relate to.  People  Sitting on these string cots at  any roadside dhabas or in rural areas  in India is a common sight . Charpoys once used outdoor , are now used throughout all rooms of the house. It is amazing to see how this modest  piece of furniture has evolved over the years . While keeping the original look intact, many versions of charpoys are now available .  ranging from multi color string, colourful legged charpoys to charpoys entirely made of metal  . These charpoys have blended in so perfectly to suit any ambience or decor and are not only adding comfortable element but also elegance and class to any room .

True Blue inspired by India

True Blue is a new limited collection by Ikea that will be available in 21 countries from July 2012 . Taking inspiration from Indian culture , folk , textiles  and its famous indigo blue color, Ikea’s collection is impressive and takes you on a journey of Indigo color from South India to North India .  They have  beautifully added the dashing shade of blue to brighten up every nook and corner of any home.
