The family owned business, Kastiel Furniture and Accessories has been around since 1942. Recently relocated in South Tel Aviv at 36 Alfasi street; this impressive, newly renovated Bahause style building is well worth a visit.
If you like the outside, you’ll love the inside. There are room after room of absolutely beautiful things.
Specializing in high end cutting edge furniture and accessories, this is the place to see “what’s in style now”.
These three oversize mirrors are on display at the entrance. The intricately carved unfinished wood frames are truly amazing.
The unfinished wood theme continues with the frame on this chair.
I think the combination of fine upholstry fabric with unfinished wood is a refreshing concept ( I am sure Shira would love to see it painted!) .
This table is another example of raw wood, Kastiel has a few really impressive pieces in this theme.
These carved wooden sculptures would be a nice accent in any room…
But the thing that I love most is this customized work area. Here you can sit and thumb through swatch books, product books, color swatches and all things design related. This place is serious about it’s clientelle.
Since Patti mentioned it – she’s right. That unfinished wood needs to be finished in some way (and if it’s Pine then it should be painted). If it’s a hardwood then I would simply lacquer or wax the wood.
And I hate the raw wood table. I know, it’s popular and people love it. I suppose I just prefer my wood in an unnatural state.
Wow! What a gorgeous building. Love the Bahause style – way too cool…
