About this piece

Rubi Dining Table Dining Set is made at Lignum Arts Private Limited in Sikar, not bought in as a flat-pack from a national warehouse. The frame is Sheesham (Indian rosewood). Lacquer is teak, honey or natural depending on the listing — those are colours on the timber, not three different species. Grain will not match a printed catalogue photograph line for line. That variation is the wood.

Count the people who eat together, not the maximum a studio photo suggests. Leave about 90 cm behind each chair so someone can stand up. A bench on one side saves width in a narrow room. Hot serving dishes need coasters; a wet cloth left on the top will mark the lacquer at the joints first.

Coffee tables in this category take the same timber standard unless the listing says otherwise. Tell us the sofa depth so the table does not collide with knees.

Typical dispatch is about 35 days after size, timber and finish are locked — not from the day you first messaged. Listed prices can be paid on the site through Cashfree. Quoted work is confirmed before we cut. Structure and hardware are covered as agreed at sale. On delivery, open the carton with the transporter present and note any damage on the slip.

After it is in the room: dust with a dry cloth, keep standing water and harsh afternoon sun off the lacquer, and lift the piece when you move it. A thin wax once or twice a year is enough if the surface looks dull. Weekly silicone spray builds a film that is hard to refinish. The longer notes are on the workshop guides for Sheesham, buying and care.
