Dressing Table with Wall Mirror in Carved Teak - Cream with Ottoman Stool

The mirror frame here has no straight sections at all. Follow it with your eye from the crest: it curves out, pulls in at the waist, swells again at the hip and closes at the base, and the curvature is changing continuously the entire way round.

That is a difficult thing to make, and the difficulty is not the shape - it is the moulding running along it. A moulded frame has a profile: a bead, a hollow, a fillet, repeated identically along its whole length. On a straight frame that profile is worked in one pass. On a frame whose curvature never stops changing, the tool meets the wood at a different angle at every point, and the same cut that leaves a crisp bead on a gentle curve will bite or skip where the curve tightens.

So the profile is worked by hand around the shape, in short overlapping sections, with the carver constantly checking the bead against the section already finished. Where the curve reverses at the waist, the grain direction flips relative to the tool, and the cut has to be taken from the opposite direction to stop the fibres tearing.

The test is simple and unforgiving. Sight along the finished frame and the bead should run as one continuous line, with no thickening, no flat and no wobble - all the way around a shape that never repeats itself.

Material: Solid teak throughout - pedestals, all seven drawer boxes, top, legs, mirror frame and ottoman frame. No veneer over engineered board.

Construction: Kneehole carcass raised on hand-carved cabriole legs with leaf knees and scrolled toes, carved bead detail on drawer fronts, hand-moulded sinuous mirror frame with carved crest and shell foot.

Storage: Three drawers in each pedestal plus one wide centre drawer. Counts, depths and internal fittings are configurable.

Mirror: Shaped wall-hung glass in a slim moulded frame, hung at the height you choose.

Finish: Soft cream as photographed. Any tone, sheen or gilding level can be specified.

Ottoman: Deep-buttoned upholstered seat on carved legs, included. Fabric is your choice.

Dimensions: Custom sizes made to order - final measurements confirmed in writing before production.

Made: Handcrafted Indian luxury, produced to order by master Indian artisans.

The wall mirror travels in its own crate. It is faced and backed with a rigid board across the full frame, and because the outline curves continuously the cushioning follows it at every point rather than bracing at corners - there are none. The carved crest and shell foot get their own rigid guards, and the wall fixings are bagged and labelled.

The vanity is wrapped in a soft non-abrasive layer laid directly onto the cream finish, then covered in shaped foam. Each cabriole leg is sleeved individually along its curve, with extra protection at the leaf knee and the scrolled toe - the legs stand proud of the carcass and meet doorframes first.

All seven drawers are removed or secured shut so nothing can run out and strike a front during handling.

The ottoman travels in its own box with its buttoned top covered and its carved legs padded one by one.

Everything then goes into rigid, internally braced outer cartons. Dent-free arrival is guaranteed, and our team installs the set in your room.

Free delivery is included anywhere in India, with no distance surcharge and nothing added at the end. Metros, tier-two cities and smaller towns are served on the same terms.

Production starts once your dimensions, drawer layout, mirror size and outline, finish and ottoman fabric are confirmed in writing. We give you a clear timeline at that point and keep you updated as the set moves through carving, drawer building, moulding, assembly and finishing.

We dispatch through carriers experienced with carved solid wood and mirrored furniture, and send tracking details as soon as the set leaves us.

On arrival our team positions and levels the vanity, hangs the mirror securely at the height you want and aligns it with the table, places the ottoman and removes every piece of packaging. Dent-free arrival is guaranteed - tell us if anything is not right and we will resolve it.

The solid teak frame and joinery carry a 20-year warranty - both pedestals, all seven drawer boxes, the top, every leg joint, the mirror frame and the ottoman frame.

Raising a wide kneehole on cabriole legs puts more demand on the joints than a plinth base does, because all the weight of two loaded pedestals passes through eight leg joints rather than sitting on the floor. Ours are traditionally jointed into solid teak, which is why we can guarantee them for two decades.

The ottoman is covered on the same terms. A fully upholstered seat is used daily and its frame is what determines how long it lasts, so ours is jointed solid teak rather than a stapled shell.

The teak carries a lifetime warranty against termite damage for as long as you own the set, from the oils in the timber rather than the finish above them.

If anything covered needs attention, send us your order details and photographs and our artisans will handle the repair or replacement.
