Home décor and furnishings from India

Indian makers are known for home décor that combines craft with export-scale production: hammered metal, carved and turned wood, ceramics and hand-finished lighting. Retailers and interior brands source seasonal collections and core ranges from the same clusters.

+

Plus every standard stage: pre-production, material check, in-line inspection, final inspection, qc report, loading supervision.

Standards and compliance

  • Electrical safety for lighting: UKCA or CE (Low Voltage Directive) for UK and EU, UL or ETL listing for the US
  • ISPM 15 heat treatment for wooden packaging and pallets
  • Food-contact rules if bowls or trays are sold for serving food

Requirements depend on your market and product. We confirm what applies and arrange testing at accredited labs before shipment.

What affects MOQs and lead times

  • Whether the product is a factory's standard design or needs new tooling or moulds
  • The material and finish, especially special platings, colours or dyes
  • Packaging that must be printed in your brand
  • The factory's current order book and the season
  • Testing or certification your market requires

You get factory quotes with minimums and lead times in your shortlist, before you commit to anything.

Questions

Will hand-made décor look exactly like the sample?

Hand-finished pieces vary slightly by nature. We agree acceptable variation with you and the factory using photos, then inspect against those limits.

Can you source a full collection across materials?

Yes. We coordinate several specialist factories, for example metal, wood and ceramics, and consolidate the goods into one shipment where possible.

How do you stop fragile pieces breaking in transit?

We agree packing specifications in advance, such as foam, inner boxes and carton strength, and run drop tests during inspection.
