FAQs

These chairs originate from regional craft traditions in South Asia, particularly regions like Punjab and Rajasthan, where locally harvested woods were intricately turned, painted, and decorated for ceremonial or domestic use.

They are typically constructed from indigenous hardwoods using traditional lathe-turning techniques, assembled with mortise-and-tenon joints, and finished with hand-mixed mineral pigments, lacquers, and decorative metal embellishments.

Authentic pieces exhibit natural patina, wear consistent with age, hand-mixed organic pigments rather than modern synthetics, and traditional joinery methods without modern metal fasteners.

Position the item as a standalone accent piece against neutral walls to highlight its colour and intricate craftsmanship, allowing it to function as a focal point in a living space or study.

Keep the piece away from direct sunlight and fluctuating humidity levels to prevent the paint from fading or flaking. Dust gently with a dry, soft microfibre cloth and avoid chemical cleaning agents.
