Vardhman Ceramic Showroom

You can find us over at Shyam Nagar, specifically right by Kaveri Bar. It’s a landmark everyone around here knows, so it makes giving directions a lot easier. Vardhman Ceramic Showroom isn’t the biggest place in the world, but we try to fit as many tile samples as we can onto the walls. It’s a bit of a squeeze sometimes when a family comes in to look at things together. We’ve got ceramics all over the place, some on the floor and some leaning against the back wall. It’s a bit dusty, which I guess is normal when you’re dealing with this kind of stuff all day. We don’t have a fancy sales pitch or anything. Usually, we just let people walk around and look at the patterns themselves. If they have a question, we answer it as best as we can. My brother and I run the place mostly, and we’ve been doing it for a few years now. The lighting in the back isn't great, so we tell people to bring the samples near the door to see the real color in the sunlight. It’s just a straightforward business. We don’t do big promotions or sales events. People just come in because they’re building something or fixing up a bathroom nearby. It’s a steady kind of life, and we like the neighborhood well enough even if the parking on the street can be a real headache sometimes.
