Handmade sheesham wood furniture is made from solid sheesham wood which is native to India, it is also known as Indian Rosewood. This is one of the hardest woods you can find and is perfect for the making of handmade furniture. Indian handmade furniture comes traditionally in two styles, the Thacket and the Jali.
The Thacket has a more rustic look with traditional sleek lines that will fit into any home decor. The Jali has a fancy wrought iron inset which can be different depending on the craftsman and the area it comes from. Both styles of handmade sheesham wood furniture will fit into any home be it traditional, farmhouse or contemporary. There is now also a contemporary range out known as the Cube range which is based on a square design but still with the warm and inviting tones of the sheesham wood.
India has a reputation for making some of the finest handmade furniture in the world, with skilled craftsmen passing down their knowledge from father to son. Indian craftsmen can turn a piece of wood into something truly remarkable and decorative using basic tools and the skills they have acquired.
Sheesham wood comes from sustainable forests and is cut when it is around 100 years old, it is then matured and dried before being made into a thing of beauty. This furniture will last you for life and as it is hardwood it will withstand all the knocks and bumps from the family.
As with all handmade furniture, the finish of each piece is unique and the colour may not be consistent in each piece, this depends on how each piece of wood absorbs the colour, although all items, either in the Thacket, Jali or Cube ranges will match in perfectly together. As with any handmade furniture there may be knots etc in the wood but this is part of the beauty of handmade furniture giving it a unique appearance.
Once you have bought some of the handmade furniture you are sure to come back for more. Only India can produce such fine pieces of handmade furniture.
