Our Craftsmanship Process

  • Wood Selection

    Our process begins with carefully selected rosewood sourced through government auctions.

  • Seasoning the Wood

    After procurement, the wood undergoes a seasoning process where it is dried and stabilized over time.

  • Designing & Shaping

    Skilled craftsmen then shape the wood according to the furniture design.

  • Hand Carving

    Intricate hand carving is carried out using traditional tools and techniques. This stage gives the furniture its unique artistic character.

  • Mysore Inlay Work

    The signature Mysore inlay work is carefully embedded into the rosewood surface.

  • Assembly & Finishing

    The furniture is then assembled and undergoes careful polishing and finishing to enhance the natural beauty of rosewood while ensuring durability and smoothness.
