Festive collection
RainTree, the Lifestyle Boutique, since its inception has endeavoured to source artifacts with a difference. Jaya Pravinda, the owner, says that she is very particular about giving her clients exclusivity in home decor, jewellery and furniture and so, personally shops for various objet dé art. “I personally select each piece and this unique collection in mosaic glass was designed for export but I was able to get a few select pieces,” she says.
The collection is a treat of colors featuring jars, matching tall vases, multipurpose bowls, matching mirror frames and much more. There are colours for all moods like green and a combination of yellow and brown for the nature lovers, red and gold to infuse vigor, orange and browns interspersed with silver for warmth and subtle seriousness, combinations of grey and white interspersed with silver, and the sensuous black and silver for those intimate spaces.
RainTree has lots of uncluttered display space. The wooden range of artifacts, displayed in the next room, draw your attention. A boat shaped wooden tray, circular candle holders with gold foil print, unusual designs in wooden candle holders, wrought iron wall hangings and much more are part of this collection.
The range of jewellery displayed in the shelves features danglers in delicate designs set with semiprecious stones in gold/gold- plated, multicoloured butterfly pendants, a silver choker in a tribal design with strings of coloured quartz at the neckline, strands of amethyst, aquamarine, and south sea pink pearls and topaz pendants. The decorative candles complete the ensemble of the new collection, ideal for exclusive gifts this festive season. RainTree is located opp. ITC Windsor, Sankey Road.
