Handled by the Saraf family —
shipped from Sardarshahar to 40+ countries.
A tree tells its age through its rings — each one a record of the seasons it endured. Our manufactory tells its story the same way. What follows are the rings of Saraf Exports: the moments that thickened the grain.
The Saraf family opens a 400 sqm workshop in Sardarshahar, Rajasthan. Twelve artisans, two wood species, one quiet ambition.
A single container of solid sheesham furniture sails to Rotterdam. It becomes the foundation of our European portfolio — today our largest region.
We relocate to a purpose-built campus — kilns, seasoning yards, finishing halls, and an on-site design studio, all under one roof.
Every trunk we receive from this year forward carries FSC-certified chain of custody. No exceptions. No shortcuts.
After years of OEM work, we release our first design collection under the Saraf name — 31 pieces, a statement of our own voice.
A 1.2 MW rooftop installation now offsets 60% of the manufactory's energy. Kilns, lathes, and finishing lines run on Rajasthan sun.
From a twelve-man shed in Sardarshahar to a manufactory that dispatches weekly to four continents. Three decades of patience, thickening the grain.
Fifty thousand square meters. Eight hundred pairs of hands. Kilns that run on solar. A seasoning yard where raw timber rests for months before it is ever touched by a chisel. Nothing here is hurried. That is the point.
Every winter, our design studio releases a new collection — a snapshot of what the manufactory has been learning. Some are public. A few are reserved for partners who ask.
Every shipment begins in Sardarshahar. Watch our live trade routes unfold — 40+ countries, one workshop, three decades of trust.
In our trade, a promise is only as strong as the joint that carries it. Each of the four standards below is drawn in the language of the workshop — the same joinery our artisans have cut by hand for thirty-two years.
Every piece we ship is made of solid timber — never veneer, never MDF, never a shortcut dressed as a standard. Like a dovetail, our construction is visible proof of the material: what you see on the surface is what runs all the way through.
Our timber is traced from FSC-certified forests to the finished piece — every board, every batch, documented. A mortise only accepts the tenon it was cut for; we only accept timber whose provenance fits the standard.
Our 800+ artisans work to a single bench standard — trained, measured, and paid fairly, with health cover and a skills programme that trains the next generation. Like a finger joint, many parts must align with the same tolerance for the whole to hold.
Many of our export relationships are older than most furniture companies. A lap joint binds two members into a single structural line — no hierarchy, no hidden fasteners. That is how we work with our buyers: overlapping, measured, and permanent.
