www.oakvillebeaver.com The Oakville Beaver, Friday January 26, 2007 - 25 Rosewood Galleries By Janice Ford-Spencer Upon entering this beautiful furniture gallery your first experience is one of an aromatic delight. The perfume of rosewood fills the air as your eyes feast upon the beauty of the wood itself. Owner, Mahmoud Beg-Mohamed, is delighted to showcase his furniture in downtown Oakville. "I was waiting for just the right location...and this is it." Open for just 2 weeks, Mahmoud, an Oakville resident himself, says, "There is a market here for this beautiful furniture." The select pieces are 100% rosewood and vary in style from rustic to reproductions. From an exquisite hand-carved trunk to a classic French serpentine front chest of drawers...each piece is distinct not only in style but the rosewood itself. "There are many types of rosewood," Mahmoud explains. "Rosewood is a family of trees." In his native Pakistan rosewood can grow in the foot-hill of the Himalayas or on the plains near the fertile canals. Mahmoud immigrated from Pakistan 7 years ago having successfully run a family business producing rosewood products. "My brother and I have been in the business 35 years and own a manufacturing facility in Pakistan." This association allows Mahmoud to import his furniture with ease and eliminate certain costs permitting him to sell definitive rosewood pieces at an affordable price. Rosewood is elite with exquisite grain and richness. Mahmoud's skilled craftsmen design and create original and reproduction masterpieces. Whatever your taste, you'll discover all periods from French colonial and classical to English military. Every piece is unique. "Our rustic line originates from Rajasthan, India and the fine delicate line from Pakistan," says Mahmoud. "We offer a splendid selection for the people of Oakville."
