Silver / Metal Diwan 007

This design of diwan can be made with either Silver sheet mounted or white metal ( EPNS) or Brass mounted over carved wood.

Silver mounted: 99% Purity of Silver sheet is used to mount and cover the carved wooden structure. Pure Silver sheet has a property of flexibility and shining that is favorable for mounting it over that deep carving without any cracks are wrinkles that gives a solid casted or molded silver look to the furniture. This process includes rolling the Pure Silver sheets, hammering, punching and re-carving on the wooden fine carved surfaces. This whole process is learnt generation to generation from the makers of furniture pieces of royal kings and emperors of Rajasthan. Most of the design are copied or modified from the furniture of the palaces and books of Udaipur, Jodhpur and Jaipur. This furniture gives a royal palace feeling to the interior.

White metal: To make this Design economical we can use White metal instead of pure Silver. White metal or called German Silver has NO ANY percentage of silver. It is very economical but Shines and gives look of silver. Also called EPNS. EPNS stands for Electro Plated Nickel Silver. German Silver is basically alloy of nickel and copper. It is very Durable, shins like silver and corrosion resistant.
White metal is hard material compare with other material we use.

The white metaled or Silver mounted Sofa sets are much more durable and strong due to use of treated Solid wood model and Finely mounted sheet with strong adhesive and small but solid nails.
