Why we publish these guides

India’s luxury furniture market has a transparency problem. Marketing claims often obscure material specifications, and “imported” or “Italian design” descriptors can mean very different things from different manufacturers. We write these guides because we believe buyers who understand what they are evaluating make better decisions — and better decisions result in furniture that actually performs in Indian conditions.

We have tried to be fair to other brands. We are not the right choice for every buyer, and we say so where that’s true. If you end up choosing a different brand after reading these guides, that is a success from our perspective — you made an informed decision with good information.
