Handcrafted Teak Wood TV Unit | Royal Luxury Carved Baroque Console Design

The Story Behind This TV Unit

The doors on this console are the reason it takes as long as it does. Carving that spills past a door frame onto the surrounding stiles cannot be cut as a flat panel and dropped in - the composition has to be laid out across the closed door and its frame together, then carved so the foliage crosses the joint line convincingly and still allows the door to open. Set it out wrong and either the door binds or the pattern breaks at the gap.

The foliage is worked in tiers. The carver establishes the ground, lifts one layer of acanthus away from it, then another, undercutting each so light passes behind the leaves. The rose blooms are shaped individually on their own axes, some open with the outer petals turning back, some still in bud.

The serpentine top is a separate discipline: shaped in and out across its full length and then worked with scrapers, because a curved polished surface shows every ripple. The legs are turned and the collars carved. Then hand-sanding through progressive grits, the polish built up in coats, and the hardware fitted last.

Packaging and Transit Protection

Multi-tier undercut carving breaks at the outermost leaf tips, and on this console those tips run right across both doors and out onto the stiles, so there is no safe edge to grip. The carved door faces are wrapped in high-density foam across their full area rather than tip by tip, so nothing can catch and lever a leaf away, and the whole piece is faced with a soft interleaf first so no foam touches the polish directly.

The turned legs are unshipped where the construction allows and wrapped individually - turned legs are the first casualty on a console in transit - and the drawer is removed, wrapped and packed alongside rather than left to travel in its opening. The serpentine top is edge-protected along its full shaped length. Everything is sleeved in a continuous foam blanket, corner-guarded and blocked into a fitted wooden crate with dense foam on every face so a heavy piece cannot shift. The crate is marked for orientation, fragility and lifting points, and photographed sealed before dispatch.

Shipping and Delivery

Every console is built and carved after you order. Typical lead time is 6 to 8 weeks from order confirmation, moving to the longer end if you increase the length or ask for deeper, denser carving - the tiered undercutting on the doors is the slowest work at the bench and the depth you choose changes the hours directly. The exact timeline is confirmed in writing at order and we share progress photographs after the carcass is built, after the doors are carved and again after polishing.

Delivery is free anywhere in India. We arrange and manage transport sized to the crate, and our team unloads, fits the legs, positions the console and levels it at your address rather than leaving crates at the gate. Please confirm doorway and stair widths and lift internal dimensions in advance - this is a heavy piece - and tell us your floor type so we can supply protective pads. International orders are quoted case by case on request.

Craftsmanship Assurance and Care

Our craftsmanship assurance covers the solid teak carcass, the carving, the joinery, the drawer runners, the door hinges and the leg joints. If a joint opens, a carved element separates or a door or drawer runs badly because of a fault in the making - rather than through impact, misuse, water damage or an attempted self-repair - we repair or replace it. Because the carving is done by hand, slight variation between pieces is expected and is not a defect.

Deeply undercut carving collects dust where a cloth will never reach, so use a clean dry soft brush across the door panels, the shell apron and the leg collars, working in the direction the leaves lie rather than against them - a cloth catches on the undercut tips and can break the finest. A soft dry cloth suits the serpentine top and the plain surfaces. Never use water, chemical polish, alcohol or ammonia cleaners on the polish. Use coasters and mats on the top, never let a hot appliance or a wet glass stand on it directly, and do not exceed the stated shelf loads. Keep the piece out of direct sunlight, which lightens a polished surface unevenly over time.
