Fair trade furniture retailer, Myakka, was contacted recently by Green Baby who wanted to borrow a special item of furniture. Green Baby used one of Myakka’s beautiful 100% Sheesham wood (Indian Rosewood) slat bookcases for their catalogue photo shoot. The bookcase was chosen due to its functionality and ability to look good in almost any home (and behind the camera!).

Myakka’s bookcase will be featured in Green Baby’s forthcoming catalogue which has a circulation of 60,000. “We were delighted to be able to help Green Baby by providing one of our most popular items of natural wood furniture, imported direct from our suppliers in India,” says Georgie Hopkins, director for Myakka.

Green Baby, the leading children’s eco brand, specialise in cotton clothing and natural skincare products for babies and young children. Their continual desire to improve the quality of products with a special interest in how they are produced is similar to the ethics of Myakka.

With stores throughout the London area and a thriving mail order business, Green Baby offers a range of products which were once hard to find in the UK.  “I have always liked Green Baby and the products they offer,” explains Georgie, who has two children aged 1 and 2½ that have also benefited from Green Baby products in the past.

The bookcase featured in Green Baby’s new catalogue is part of Myakka’s Mallani range which also includes the Mallani Console Tables and Slat Coffee Tables which are popular with Myakka’s customers.
