Bone Inlay Furniture
Handcrafted furniture featuring cruelty-free camel bone inlay on hardwood. Artisans arrange polished bone fragments into geometric or floral patterns, dyed in vibrant hues. Each piece combines durability with intricate artistry, reflecting Rajasthan's heritage. Available in chests, mirrors, and tables, these items require minimal maintenance and add timeless elegance to interiors.
Mother of Pearl Inlay
Luxurious furniture adorned with iridescent mother of pearl inlays. Skilled craftsmen embed polished shell fragments into wood, creating shimmering patterns inspired by traditional Rangoli designs. Products include wardrobes, dressing tables, and coffee tables, each showcasing the natural beauty of nacre. Ideal for adding opulence to both modern and classic spaces.
Painted Indian Furniture
Vibrantly painted furniture featuring floral motifs and Indian-inspired patterns. Artisans hand-paint mango or sheesham wood with durable finishes, blending traditional Rajasthani art with contemporary aesthetics. Available in sideboards, cupboards, and benches, these pieces offer bold colour accents while maintaining structural resilience through sustainably sourced timber.
White Metal Furniture
Elegant furniture with embossed white metal finishes on hardwood bases. Artisans hammer nickel alloys into intricate floral or geometric designs, creating reflective surfaces that enhance room lighting.

Again - poor customer service. Ordered a mirror yet no clear communication on when it might be delivered or even in stock. Took our money & husband has now spent over a week chasing for our (entitled) refund - still not received. Poor.

Quality of the products are not great. Despite receiving the incorrect products twice we then received damaged stock. Disappointing as the designs are beautiful.
