About Shekhawati Crafts | Handcrafted Solid Wood Furniture Manufacturer — Ramgarh Shekhawati, Rajasthan


Where Every Piece Tells a Story

In the heart of Rajasthan — in a bustling manufacturing unit in Ramgarh, Sikar District — skilled hands shape, carve, and finish solid wood every single day. These are not factory workers running machines. These are craftsmen. Artisans. People who have inherited a 200-year-old tradition of woodworking that runs through the Shekhawati region like a river.

Shekhawati Crafts was founded in 1996 with one simple belief that the finest handcrafted solid wood furniture in India should be accessible to every Indian home — without the inflated price tags, without the middlemen, and without compromising on the quality that only comes from true craftsmanship.

Nearly three decades later, we are proud to be one of India's most trusted handcrafted solid wood furniture manufacturers, delivering Sheesham wood and Mango wood furniture to homes across every state in India — completely free.

Our Story — From a Small Workshop to 1,00,000+ Happy Homes

Shekhawati Crafts began in 1996 as a small furniture workshop in Ramgarh, Rajasthan. Our founder, Shree Vinod Kumar Chaturvedi, had one vision — to bring the extraordinary woodcraft tradition of the Shekhawati region directly to Indian homes, bypassing the long chain of distributors and retailers that made quality furniture unnecessarily expensive.

The Shekhawati region had always been known for its ornate painted havelis and frescoed mansions. But beneath that visual grandeur lay another equally extraordinary tradition — the art of hand-carved wooden furniture, practised by families of skilled craftsmen for generations. Our founder saw this craft being slowly forgotten as mass-produced, MDF-based furniture flooded the market. He decided to preserve it.

Starting with a small team of 5 artisans and a handful of tools, Shekhawati Crafts began making solid Sheesham wood beds, dining tables, and bookshelves — one piece at a time, by hand.

Today, we are a team of passionate craftsmen and furniture lovers with a catalogue of 1000+ handcrafted products, a 5.0 Google star rating, and thousands of happy customers who have welcomed a piece of Rajasthan into their homes.

We are not just a furniture brand. We are the keepers of a craft.

Our Craft — What Makes Shekhawati Crafts Different

In an industry flooded with engineered wood, MDF boards, and veneer-coated furniture, Shekhawati Crafts stands apart in one fundamental way:

We only use 100% solid wood. Always.

Every bed, every dining table, every bookshelf, every wardrobe we make is built from solid Sheesham wood (Indian Rosewood) or Mango wood — cut from real timber, not assembled from pressed wood chips and glue.

Here is what goes into every Shekhawati Crafts piece:

🌳 Hand-selected timber — Every plank is personally inspected by our master craftsmen for grain quality, density, and consistency before a single cut is made.

🔥 Kiln-dried wood — Our timber is kiln-dried to reduce moisture content to optimal levels before crafting begins — preventing future warping, cracking, or swelling in India's varied climate conditions.

🤲 Hand-crafted joinery — We use traditional mortise-and-tenon joints, wooden dowels, and time-tested joinery techniques that create furniture that holds together for decades — no metal screws that loosen over time.

🪵 Hand-carved detailing — Our artisans hand-carve every floral motif, geometric pattern, and decorative element. Each carving takes hours — sometimes days — and no two pieces are identical.

✨ Hand-finished surfaces — Every piece is sanded through multiple grades by hand before a finishing coat is applied — resulting in a surface that is silky smooth and rich in colour.

🎨 4 beautiful finishes — Natural (original warm wood tone), Walnut (deep rich brown), Honey (golden amber), Matte Black (contemporary sleek). All applied by hand.

Sheesham Wood (Indian Rosewood)

Our primary material for beds, wardrobes, dining tables, and storage furniture. Sheesham (Dalbergia Sissoo) is:

  • One of the hardest domestic woods in India
  • Naturally termite and humidity resistant
  • Furniture that lasts 50–100 years with basic care
  • Gets more beautiful with age — richer grain, deeper colour

Mango Wood (Mangifera Indica)

Our choice for coffee tables, end tables, sideboards, and decorative pieces. Mango wood is:

  • Sustainably sourced from retired fruit trees — eco-friendly
  • Has beautiful natural colour variation and unique grain
  • Lighter and more affordable than Sheesham
  • Perfect for contemporary and transitional interiors

Meet Our Artisans — The Heart of Shekhawati Crafts

Behind every piece of Shekhawati Crafts furniture is a craftsman with decades of experience and a family legacy of woodworking.

Our artisans come from families in and around Ramgarh where woodworking has been practised for three and four generations. Many of them started learning the craft as teenagers — watching their fathers and grandfathers shape Sheesham wood into extraordinary furniture with nothing more than hand tools, keen eyes, and deep patience.

At Shekhawati Crafts, we are committed to:

  • Fair wages — above market rate for every craftsman on our team
  • Safe working conditions — clean, well-lit, ventilated workshops
  • Skill preservation — teaching traditional Rajasthani carving techniques to the next generation
  • Artisan recognition — we believe the person who makes your furniture deserves to be known, not hidden

When you buy a piece of furniture from Shekhawati Crafts, you are not just buying furniture. You are directly supporting the livelihood of a skilled Rajasthani artisan and helping keep a 200-year craft tradition alive.

Our Process — From Forest to Your Home

Step 1 — Wood Selection 🌳 Master craftsmen personally select and inspect each timber plank for grain quality, density, moisture content, and consistency before purchase.

Step 2 — Kiln Drying 🔥 Selected timber is kiln-dried to reduce moisture to optimal levels — ensuring the wood will not warp, crack, or swell after delivery to your home.

Step 3 — Handcrafting 🤲 Artisans shape, join, and carve the furniture by hand using traditional techniques. Complex pieces can take several days to complete.

Step 4 — Quality Inspection ✅ Every finished piece is inspected by our quality team — checking joints, surface finish, dimensions, and structural integrity before any product is approved for dispatch.

Step 5 — Finishing 🎨 Approved pieces are hand-sanded and finished in your chosen finish — Natural, Walnut, Honey, or Matte Black — before being carefully packaged for delivery.

Step 6 — Free Delivery Across India 🚚 Each piece is carefully packaged and dispatched with free delivery to your doorstep — anywhere in India.
