Pricing for custom furniture depends heavily on wood species, size, and design complexity. Having realistic price ranges in mind before your consultation helps set expectations and budget appropriately.
Typical Price Ranges by Furniture Type
Center tables: ₹15,000 – ₹60,000
Dining tables (6-seater): ₹45,000 – ₹1,50,000
Beds (queen/king): ₹40,000 – ₹1,20,000
Wardrobes: ₹60,000 – ₹2,00,000+
Sofas: ₹50,000 – ₹1,80,000
Factors That Drive Cost Up or Down
Wood species — teak and walnut sit at the higher end, ash and oak are more budget-friendly
Design complexity — intricate carving or unusual shapes increase labor time
Size — larger pieces naturally require more material and construction time
Finish type — hand-applied natural finishes cost more than sprayed lacquers
Hardware quality — premium hinges and slides add to overall cost
