Iris is an independent retailer of fine Indian furnishings. We have genuine passion for Indian furniture rooted in our 20 year love affair with the region. We aim to bring to market some of the more elegant traditions of Indian craftsmanship that are less well known in the West. We strive to offer a more personal service where customers are invited to contact us directly with any questions regarding our furniture.
We have a very close relationship with our suppliers that is derived from years of friendship and a shared understanding of the history, language and traditions of the region. We keep very close ties with the families that make our furniture, visiting them several times a year. This enables us to maintain ethically sourced materials and working environments.

Do not buy from them.
I bought a chest drawer and it took over six months to be delivered. It arrived with a broken leg and infested with bugs. The wood was rotten deteriorated because of the wood-eating worms! I had paid over 1700 for it and they told me to use wood glue for the legs and there is nothing they can do for the worms!!! Please spend your money elsewhere!

Best I can say about Iris Furnishing is that their business is a lot bigger than their capacity to manage it and their customers.

I'd never really noticed this furniture shop on Gloucester road before, it's a little bit out of the way, and is only open Wednesday to Sunday. When I went in though I was really struck by the stuff they have; they stock handmade furniture that they import from Rajasthan. The majority of their furniture is inlaid with camel bone or mother of pearl into coloured resin, in intricate floral patterns. It's beautiful, and really distinctive. Unfortunately it's also pretty pricey, at £900 for a chest of drawers, £200 for a small bedside table. They also sell more familiar looking
