The ππ° – ππ°π³πͺ ππ’π©π’π³ ππΆπ―π’πͺ is an attempt to re-discover the craft. ππΆπ―π’πͺ is a common sight throughout India, particularly in rural areas. Our artisans practice carpentry and rope weaving using indigenous techniques passed down through generations. This indigenous knowledge is under threat in the face of urbanization. The need to promote and bring cultural appropriation of such indigenous knowledge is high in order to preserve them.

How do you keep your furniture beautiful for many years to come?
- Always wipe your furniture with a dry cloth, after cleaning it with a damp cloth.
- If you spill any liquid, you should always wipe it off as quickly as possible.
- Always use hot pads/mats under hot and/or damp objects.
- Always use a firm pad when using sharp utensils.
- Protect the surface against scratches from China etc. using felt, for example.
- In order to maintain the colour of the wood, you should avoid direct sunlight as far as possible.
- Never place furniture close to wood-burningstoves, radiators etc.
Solid wood in general
Wood is a living material that requires proper care and maintenance. The wood reacts in varying degrees depending on the humidity of the surroundings. That is why it is important for wooden furniture to stand in an environment, where the humidity does not fluctuate more than between 40 and 60%. When winter sets in and it is time to switch on the heating, humidity may fall to below 40%. This can cause the wood to shrink a little, but it will expand again once the humidity rises. This comes about because of the evaporation, which is greatest through cross-cut timber. Under these dry conditions, you should make sure that furniture is treated as prescribed with oil. We recommend you purchase a hygrometer to check the humidity in your home. Generally speaking, solid wood is one of natureβs finest materials. It is very durable and has a very long service life. Wood is a natural product, so the texture of the wood may include small knots and colour variations in the finished product. Important: Solid wood is affected by exposure to direct sunlight or direct heat: for example from a wood-burning stove. This may discolour and dry out the wood, causing cracks, for example in table-tops. Never cover solid wood with an oilcloth or something similar for longer than 24 hours at the most.
