The designer details the piece as follows:

Inspiration
The Nizwa family of furniture is inspired by the rounded castellations of the Nizwa Fort in Oman and the ombré colour effect caused by the sunlight falling across them.
Craft
The Italian maple veneers are dyed immediately after being cut from the tree when still ‘wet’ resulting in deeper, richer colours. The ombré is created by hand-shading the veneer, a technique mastered by our craftspeople in Muscat.
Detail
The elegant pattern is meticulously constructed by hand using the ancient technique of marquetry, each door containing one hundred and eight individual elements of solid brass, copper or nickel and one hundred and eighteen maple veneer “petals”.

This is a practical piece with great storage. We kept television equipment in it and still had plenty of space for other storage.

From a design standpoint, this piece works itself in many places from living rooms and other public spaces to bedroom. See less
