SHIKARA DESIGN and KASBAH  IMPORTS   is a continuously changing collection of mystical art, sculpture, achitectural features, furniture, decor items, rugs, jewellery and music from the East.We stock a range of pieces that reflect an enormous mythological and religious heritage whilst at the same time having a unique aspect of design.

We have a large warehouse at 242 Montague Rd West End, Brisbane Queensland where we land our containers. This warehouse is open to both wholesale and retail clients.

Directors are Mohan Govindasamy and Julian Millane, who between us have over 70 years experience in the East both as travellers and traders in all that is to offer from a myriad of amazing craftspeople.

We both have a passionate love affair with India and her people, the temples and the culture in general.

Along with the huge range of furniture and furnishings we have managed to gather a collection of pieces that have artistic appeal and 'spiritual' significance, some of the works being made by India's finest sculptors contributing to a large collection of mystical art and tantric art, with more shipments arriving every day.

We are also in the enviable position of being manufacturers with a purpose built factory in Jodphur India shipping worldwide.There we have a group of skilled carpenters and artists, producing furniture  and architectural pieces from kiln dried hardwoods. Many are made using old pieces such as doors and columns, making every piece a unique piece. We commonly receive commissions for domestic and larger projects.

We are often onsite in India co-ordinating the consolidation of containers that may contain many elements opf our business.

We also have the facility there to provide 4 star accomodation for our clients who may wish to come there and work with us to consolidate containers which we will ship anywhere in the world.

In 2006 we introduced our magnificent travelling show "Touch of the Mystic" which was a huge success and well attended and received. One of our aims for 2007/08 is to hold more shows in various areas of Australia, and indeed worldwide, showcasing our amazing products from a disappearing world. Feel free to contact us and we'll let you know when and if we will be coming to your city.

 "The dream is universal, it is not my own. It is centuries old - or you can say, it is eternal. The earth began to see that dream with the dawning of the very first rays of human consciousness. How many flowers are strung in the garland of this dream - how many Gautam Buddhas, Mahaviras, Kabirs and Nanaks have sacrificed their lives for this dream? How am I to call that dream mine? That dream is the dream of man himself. We have given this dream a name - we call this dream India.''
