Finding India in Cape Town..

Antique furniture, chandeliers, jharokas, nandis, silver bed, patina-ed buddhas figurine, kilim carpets, brass thaalis, marble archs, carved pillars, jaisalmer stone floors, incense sticks, sikh paintings, stone idols, mirror work textiles, brass urlis.....you will be forgiven to think that I am sharing with you an Indian palace today. Though, on second thoughts, in a way I am doing just that; just the location of this magnificent home happens to be Cape Town’s historic De Waterkant. This, is Danny and Mitch's home. Their love for collecting and preserving Edwardian and Indian antiquities is evident in each of the photographs below. See more of their museum like home here..
