Shilandi Designer Furniture Home Accessories

We have our little shop, Shilandi Designer Furniture Home Accessories, over at 151 Koramangala in the Pimple Gurav area. It’s more of a workshop than a fancy showroom really. You’ll usually see sawdust on the floor and pieces of wood leaning against the walls. We make things like chairs, small tables, and different bits for the house. Sometimes we get people coming in with pictures from a magazine asking if we can make something similar, and we try our best with what we have. It’s just a few of us working here, so things take time and it’s never perfectly quiet. The smell of varnish and cut wood is always in the air. We don't have a big display window, so most people just walk in and look at what we are currently building. Pimple Gurav is a busy neighborhood, but our corner stays relatively tucked away. We often have scraps of fabric and different metal knobs lying around for the accessories we put together. It’s not a factory; everything is done by hand, so nothing is ever exactly the same as the next piece. Sometimes we make mistakes and have to sand something down and start over. We just enjoy working with our hands and seeing a finished piece of furniture go out the door. It’s honest work and we like being part of the local community here in this part of town.
