Another niche carved, by WOOD CARVERS

The wood carver, Mahnaz Amir Sheikh

Furniture designing is no longer a male domain. Here in Multan, women have taken over the charge.

Women, generally know more about furnishing and decorations. Because, they are usually responsible for performing these tasks, everywhere. Specially, those women, who are born with Golden spoons in their mouth. They tend to develop extra taste for finishing and designs. Such is the case with Mahnaz Amir Sheikh.

The lady is brave enough to venture into the world of this male dominated business world, almost a decade ago. And proved herself, a great competition for those, already raging in this field. She works under the label of Wood Carvers. Her furniture, speaks of the class and taste of its creator. It has a very regal, aristocratic, royal look about it, just like the designer herself.

Over last decade, Mahnaz has successfully held exhibitions of her furniture all over Pakistan. She started from Multan, took her furniture to Lahore and Islamabad. Also, participated in many international fairs. Wherever she went, she came out with a sweeping victory.

Recently, 'wood carvers' arranged its fourth exhibition, solely meant for the natives of Multan. Which lasted three days (from 13th to 15th March), at ladies club Multan. The occasion turned out to be a massive success, like always. Mahnaz's work was eagerly bought and greatly admired.

We congratulate Mahnaz, for yet another successful venture and wish her all the best for the future.
