A true high-gloss finish is not a coat of paint. It is many thin coats, each one flattened back before the next goes on, and then polished until the surface reflects like glass. It takes days and a dust-free room, and it is the finish that separates a piece that looks lacquered from one that looks sprayed. We do it in our own booth.

The panel is sealed, primed and flattened. Then colour goes on in thin coats, then clear lacquer over that, and between every coat the surface is cut back flat again. Only after the last coat is it polished, in stages, from a coarse compound to a fine one.
Skip the flattening and you get orange peel — a rippled surface that looks like the skin of the fruit. Skip the dust control and you get specks under the clear coat that cannot be removed without starting again.
Gloss bounces light around a room and makes a small space feel bigger. It also shows every fingerprint, every speck of dust and every scratch, and it reflects whatever is opposite it.
Matt lacquer — the same build, a different final coat — hides marks, feels soft under the hand and reads more modern. In a bedroom or a room with strong daylight, matt is usually the better choice, and most people pick it once they have seen both.
A thin, fast finish has nowhere to go when the panel underneath moves. It hazes, then it hairlines, then it yellows — usually within two or three years, and always first on the edges.
Build depth into the coats, cure it properly, and use a clear that is rated against ultraviolet light, and a gloss panel stays clear for many years. The difference is entirely in the time taken, which is why it shows up in the price and not in the photograph.
A soft microfibre cloth, slightly damp, and nothing else. No abrasive pad, no scouring cream, no spray polish — polish leaves a film that dulls the reflection and is hard to get off again.
Wipe in straight lines rather than circles. On a gloss panel, circular marks catch the light and show.
Every one shown three ways — the piece alone, everything it is made of, and the same piece in a real room.

The centrepiece your whole living room will orbit. Real stone in black, smoky charcoal and gold is hand-laid piece by piece into a sunburst that seems to glow from inside, framed in brushed brass on a glossy black base. It comes as a pair — a big table and a little one that tucks under. No two tops are ever the same.

Soft, round and calming to look at. A creamy selenite stone top on a smooth sculpted base — use one as a side table, or a pair together as a low centre table. The veining is natural, so yours will be yours alone, and it will never once feel like anyone else's.
Make it mine →Plain answers, from the workshop floor.
Furniture finished with many thin coats of lacquer, each one flattened back before the next, then polished in stages until the surface reflects like glass. It is a process measured in days and it needs a dust-free booth — which is why a real gloss finish and a quickly sprayed one look nothing alike a year later.
Gloss reflects light and makes a small room feel larger, but it shows fingerprints, dust and scratches, and it mirrors whatever is opposite it. Matt is the same build with a different final coat — it hides marks, feels soft to the touch and reads more modern. In a bedroom or a bright room, matt is usually better.
Too few coats, cured too fast, with no ultraviolet protection in the clear. The finish hazes, then hairlines, then yellows — usually within two or three years and always at the edges first. Depth of build and proper curing are the whole difference, and neither shows in a photograph.
Yes. Send a sample — a drawer front, an offcut, a paint chip — and we mix and spray to it, then send you a sprayed sample back to approve before the piece is finished.
Yes, and it stays free — no end date, no minimum. We deliver your piece to your door anywhere in mainland India, crate, freight, transit cover, e-way bill and GST included. Andaman & Nicobar and Lakshadweep go by sea at actual cost; outside India is quoted per port.
No. There is no minimum, no remote-area fee and no fuel surcharge. One bedside table travels on the same free terms as a twelve-piece bedroom, to Mumbai or to Leh, and the crate is built around your finished piece.
