Mid-Century & Scandinavian Seating Handcrafted in Solid Teak

About Mid-Century & Scandinavian Seating
Every sofa and chair I build starts with a solid teak or oak frame, but you decide how it feels. Whether you want a firm seat for a formal living room or a soft, deep-cushioned lounge chair for reading, I adjust the foam density, fabric, and wood finish to match your specific lifestyle needs.
Design That Lasts
My approach to mid-century and Scandinavian design is simple: if it is not built to last, it is not worth making. I work primarily with seasoned teak and oak, using traditional joinery techniques that provide structural integrity without relying on excess glue or mass-production methods. This is furniture designed to age well, not just look good on day one.
Customization Beyond Looks
When you order a piece from this collection, you are not picking from a warehouse shelf. You are selecting a frame—be it a Pierre Jeanneret inspired V-leg or a minimalist Scandinavian lounge chair—and customizing it.
- Upholstery: From velvet and suede to durable cotton-linen blends, we test fabrics for daily wear.
- Wood Finishes: Choose between natural teak, walnut, dark walnut, or charcoal black to match your existing home palette.
- Cane & Weaving: We use authentic rattan cane, hand-woven into the frames to ensure a consistent, breathable finish that adds texture to your room.
The Workshop Process
I am based in Oshiwara, Mumbai, and my team works on one piece at a time. Because everything is handmade, there are small quirks that you will not find in factory-made items—that is where the character comes from.
Every piece comes with a five-year warranty against manufacturing defects. If you have a specific space constraint, like a tight corner or a non-standard ceiling height for a daybed, reach out with the dimensions. I often modify leg profiles or armrest heights to ensure the piece fits your home perfectly. Orders are insured for transit and usually ready to ship across India within 2 to 6 weeks.
