Sheesham is one of the most asked-for woods in Delhi furniture shops, so it helps to know how to check that you are getting it. Sheesham is the common name for Dalbergia sissoo, a tree native to the Indian subcontinent (source). Simple checks at the shop, plus the wood written on your bill, protect you. At Golden Paradise Furniture & Interiors each product page lists its wood, and we link here only items whose specifications say sheesham. All products are 30% off with free delivery across India.

Six checks to do in any Delhi shop


  1. Ask what is written on the bill: the wood name should be on the invoice, not just spoken.

  2. Ask which parts are sheesham: the frame, legs, panels and back can be different materials. Ask about each.

  3. Look at the grain: on solid wood, grain usually continues around edges and corners. A repeating printed pattern or a thin edge strip suggests a veneer or laminate.

  4. Check unpolished areas: look under the table top, inside drawers and under the bed to see the raw wood.

  5. Feel the weight: solid hardwood furniture generally feels heavy for its size. Compare similar pieces side by side.

  6. Ask about the polish: dark polish can hide the grain. Ask to see a lighter finish or a sample piece.

These are general checks, not lab tests. If you are unsure, ask the seller to confirm the wood in writing. For pieces made to your size, see customised furniture in Delhi.
