Product Description
The Tangāli Day Bed is part of the second collection designed by INODA+SVEJE for Phantom Hands. Innovation in cane-weaving patterns was a hallmark of the design process for the Tangāli collection.
The Tangāli Day Bed comes with a bolster. The default colour for the bolster is the light cream ‘Andaman Moonbeam’, but it can also be ordered in any of the colours from the cotton-linen blended Andaman fabric family or in COM (Customer’s Own Material). Optional seating cushions can be added to the Day Bed to place over the woven cane areas.
In India, the day bed is known as a ‘charpoy’, and is an essential and historically significant piece of furniture.. Versions of the charpoy are seen in most homes in rural India even today. They are usually made with wood and woven fabric or ropes. Pierre Jeanneret is credited with designing several modernist variants of the day bed during his stay in Chandigarh in the 1950s, some just for his personal use.
Product Specification
Product Options
We offer this product in a choice of two wood finishes: Natural Teak and Dark Stain.
The Natural Teak finish provides the clearest expressions of the timber’s character, while the Dark Stain finish—custom-developed by Phantom Hands—gives the wood a deeper, richer tone while preserving the clarity of the grain.
In both finishes, the stain is applied after hand-sanding with progressively finer grits of sandpaper. The Natural Teak is finished with a hard wax oil that brings out the natural, golden-brown colour of the teak. The Dark Stain is finished with a three-coat application of compatibility-tested hydro-oil.
The Tangāli cane weave pattern, specially developed by INODA+SVEJE for this collection, is a special weave with double strands of cane wrapped around the edges of the wooden frame of the products.
Loose cushions can optionally be added to the Tangāli Day Bed for seating comfort and protection of the woven cane. The default colour for the cushions is the light cream ‘Andaman Moonbeam’, but they can also be ordered in any of the colours from the cotton-linen blended Andaman fabric family, as seen in the swatches below.
