Kachalinta
offers a collection of the finest, old, authentic Tibetan furniture, rugs, objects
d'art and Himalayan tribal art. Each piece has been carefully selected
to ensure the finest quality. Everything has been carefully
cleaned and expertly restored, ready to be placed in your home.
Kachalinta also has a gallery of old Himalayan jewellery, mainly from Nepal and Tibet. Some pieces have been modified so they can be worn in a modern manner, while retaining all their original character. Kachalinta has a selection of authentic furniture in the UK and recommends pieces that are now in Australia. All the other pieces are currently in Kathmandu, Nepal.
Every piece featured in this Web site has been selected by Luca and Camilla Corona, co-authors of the article "Tibetan furniture, Its Construction and Use in Tibetan Society" in Serindia's publication WOODEN
WONDERS: TIBETAN FURNITURE IN SECULARE AND RELIGIOUS LIFE. Ed. By David
