Sheesham (Indian rosewood)

Dense, hard and tight-grained with dramatic figure, sheesham takes a fine finish and stands up to heavy contract use — a workhorse for tables, sideboards and beds. We kiln-dry and moisture-log it in our own yard, typically to 8–10%, so imported pieces don't crack or warp as they settle into a dry, air-conditioned interior.

Why sheesham wood furniture lasts

Sheesham (Dalbergia sissoo) is one of the harder Indian hardwoods — about 770 kg/m³ dried, with a Janka hardness of 1,660 lbf and a decay-resistance rating of durable to very durable (The Wood Database) — with interlocked grain that resists splitting and a natural figure that varies board to board — so no two pieces are identical. Its density carries screwed and mortise-and-tenon joints well, which is why it holds up under the repeated loading of hotel and restaurant use. We work it solid, not as a veneer over board, so a mark can be sanded back and re-finished on site rather than replaced.

Finishes and care

Sheesham accepts natural oil, wax, stain and lacquer; the grain reads through a clear finish and takes a darker stain evenly. In service, keep it clear of direct heat and strong sun, wipe with a dry or lightly damp cloth, and re-oil or wax occasionally to feed the grain. Kiln-drying to 8–10% before it ships is what keeps a piece stable when it moves from a humid workshop to a dry, conditioned interior.

Built to order, shipped by the container

Sheesham pieces are cut, joined and finished on our own floor and checked for moisture, joinery, finish and dimension before packing. Orders run from a five-unit sample to a full container; we quote EXW, FOB or CIF from Mundra or Nhava Sheva, fumigate to ISPM-15 and prepare export documentation here.

For importers and wholesalers

We sell to importers, distributors and retailers as well as hotel projects: wholesale quantities from a five-unit sample run to full containers, mixed containers welcome, quoted EXW, FOB or CIF. See the market pages for the USA, UK, Australia and Europe.

EU deforestation rules (EUDR)

From 30 December 2026 the EU Deforestation Regulation applies to wooden furniture (HS 9403) placed on the EU market; the EU operator files a due-diligence statement that includes the geolocation of the timber's harvest plots (Regulation (EU) 2025/2650). Tell us at enquiry what your statement needs, so the supporting documents are prepared with the order.

Frequently asked

What is sheesham wood?
Sheesham (Indian rosewood, Dalbergia sissoo) is a dense, hard, tight-grained hardwood with dramatic figure. It takes a fine finish and stands up to heavy contract use, which makes it a workhorse for tables, sideboards, beds and casegoods.
Is sheesham wood furniture good for export?
Yes — we kiln-dry and moisture-log sheesham in our own yard, typically to 8–10%, so pieces do not crack or warp as they settle into dry, air-conditioned interiors abroad. Every sea shipment is fumigated to ISPM-15 with legal-timber documentation prepared in-house.
How should sheesham furniture be cared for?
Keep it out of direct heat and strong sun, wipe with a dry or lightly damp cloth, and oil or wax occasionally to feed the grain. Because it is solid wood, minor marks can be sanded and re-finished rather than replaced.
What is the minimum order for sheesham furniture?
From a five-unit sample run to a full 40-foot high-cube container, with mixed containers welcome. Every quote is per project — there are no fixed list prices.
