Quilt on Bench by Fire in Bikaner Late Summer

Broad late-afternoon skylight bounces off pale walls, filling the room with soft illumination. A wooden bench sits beside a crackling wood-burning fireplace, its rough stone hearth glowing with orange and yellow flames. A colorful quilt with geometric patterns in deep reds, ochres, and indigo drapes loosely over the bench back, its fabric folds catching the ambient glow. Shadows stretch softly across the floorboards while dust motes hang still in the bright air. The intricate stitching of the quilt rests against the warm wood grain of the bench armrest.
