The Process
Craftsmanship
Where material meets meaning.
From Forest to Home
Selection
Every piece begins with material selection. Our wood scouts travel to sustainably managed forests across the Americas, Europe, and Southeast Asia, hand-selecting each slab for grain character, colour depth, and structural integrity.
Seasoning
Selected timber is air-dried for twelve months, then kiln-dried for a further six — an eighteen-month process that ensures dimensional stability for generations. We never rush this step; the wood dictates the timeline.
Shaping
Master craftsmen shape each piece by hand using a combination of traditional joinery techniques and precision CNC routing. Every curve is refined by eye and touch, every joint cut to tolerances of 0.1mm.
Finishing
Our finishing process involves seven successive applications of hand-rubbed natural oil, each coat buffed and left to cure before the next. The result is a surface that invites touch and deepens with age.
Our Palette
Solid Hardwood @hariom
Sustainably sourced walnut, oak, and ash — each slab hand-selected for grain character and structural integrity. Our timber is kiln-dried for eighteen months before it ever meets a craftsman's chisel. @hariom
Italian Marble
Carrara, Calacatta, and Nero Marquina — quarried from the Apuan Alps and hand-polished to a mirror finish. Every slab is unique, bearing the geological signature of millennia.
Full-Grain Leather
Aniline-dyed hides sourced from the finest Italian tanneries. Full-grain leather develops a rich patina over time, each mark becoming part of the piece's living story.
Brushed Metal
Brass, bronze, and matte black steel — each metal element is hand-finished to achieve a texture that invites touch. Our metalwork bridges the industrial and the artisanal.
Natural Stone
Travertine, onyx, and quartzite — ancient materials that ground our pieces in geological time. Each stone surface is hand-cut and finished to reveal its crystalline interior.
Handwoven Textiles
Bouclé, linen, and organic cotton — woven by artisan cooperatives across India and Europe. Our textiles are chosen for their tactile richness and enduring character.
“The material knows what it wants to become. Our job is simply to listen.”
— Master Craftsman Vijay Patel, 32 years at Gajjar
