The brief

A contemporary room that wants a metallic base less loud than gold

Matte black can look heavy in a light room, and polished gold can look too festive for every day.

Lauha uses gunmetal, a dark, softly reflective grey like forged iron, shaped into hourglasses and collared in gold.

Four decisions

Gunmetal pedestals

Each hourglass pedestal is finished in gunmetal PVD, a dark grey with a soft metallic sheen.

Gold collars

A gold collar at each waist gives the dark metal a small, warm point of light.

An hourglass shape

The pedestals flare at both ends and narrow at the middle, so the tables look poised.

Between black and gold

Gunmetal sits between matte black and polished gold, quiet by day and rich by lamplight.

Materials, named

As shown, round white sintered-stone tops on hourglass pedestals of gunmetal PVD stainless steel with gold PVD collars.

The making

The hourglass cones are spun from stainless steel, joined and polished, finished in gunmetal PVD, and the gold collar fitted at the waist.

The finished piece

They suit a contemporary living room with charcoal or slate upholstery and warm lamps.

The Lauha is made to order in our own factory in Cherlapally, drawn at our Gachibowli studio, and delivered to Jubilee Hills, Banjara Hills, Tellapur and beyond.

Your room is not this room. Bring photographs and we will draw to it.

Questions

Questions about the Lauha nesting tables

What colour is gunmetal PVD?

It is a dark, slightly reflective grey, like polished iron, bonded to stainless steel so it resists scratches.

Can the Lauha collars be removed or changed?

The collars are fitted at the making stage; they can be ordered in gold, rose gold, bronze or gunmetal.

Sintered stone or Italian marble: which is better for the Lauha nesting tables?

On the Lauha, sintered stone, as photographed, is harder and needs no sealing; Italian marble is softer and needs sealing, but every slab is one of a kind. The Lauha can be made with either, on gunmetal PVD stainless steel.

Where can I order the Lauha nesting tables in Hyderabad?

You can order the Lauha at our design studio in Gachibowli, or on WhatsApp. We draw the Lauha to your room, show you its materials as samples, and give you a factory-direct quote before anything is made.
