Empress Homewares& Gifts

Vlado Borovac has been making the trip to India for over 17 years, returning with bone inlay furniture, hand-carved sculptures and reclaimed timber pieces he sources directly from the workshops that make them. The Norwood showroom on Osmond Terrace also carries rattan made to order from Indonesia. The approach is accumulative rather than matched — pieces that outlast trends rather than follow them.
