Industrial design Round Bookshelf

This modern and elegant industrial design bookshelf made of iron and wood is a fine example of the “Bauhaus” movement influence in Indian industrial design. The wheel is a very important symbol in India, which enhances the importance of this piece.

The Chakra, also spelled Cakra, Sanskrit C̣akra, (“wheel”), any of a number of psychic-energy centres of the body, prominent in the occult physiological practices of certain forms of Hinduism and Tantric Buddhism. The whirling wheel-like disc called the  Sudarshana Chakra is the spike-laden divine weapon of Vishnu, one of the principal Hindu deities. The discus, which is also associated with the mind and the “wheel of time”, is seen in the flag of India and commonly in the hand of artistic renderings of Vishnu.
