Wooden almirahs of India are listed as amongst the most exported
handicraft products. As it is the very word, ' Wooden Almirah' brings
forth an image of an antique storage space in the kitchen or in the
bedroom, study and in the office spaces. Even the modern day almirah or
the cupboard, as they are called these days, is influenced by the
antique almirahs. Almirah may have single or double door, which is rather elaborately carved or painted or inlayed with copper or brass. Some even have glass or lattice wok doors. It may be shelved or may have hanging space along with the shelves.
The decorative work on the wooden almirah relates it to a particular culture, region and the time period in history and just like other crafts the furniture craft.
