A world of furniture in Hyderabad
what you see – Located in a corner of a building that is still under construction, you wouldn’t know how to find Furniture World, Hyderabad. You’ll meet his richer cousin, Alqove, who specializes in vintage and designer furniture. He explores a bit more and he’ll notice that he resides on the top four floors of the building. Each floor in Furniture World is attributed to a section; For example, one floor caters to dining sets and tableware, another deals to cribs and bedroom accessories, and so on.
What you get – Being indecisive will not help you here. Starting from the 7th floor, the four floors here have plenty of variety to confuse you. There are dining table sets on the 7th floor, mostly made of teak or chrome metal with glass tops. A six-seater teak table with a glass top and carved legs will cost Rs 30,000 and if you like more ornate carvings it can go as high as Rs 60,000. A metal dining table is priced at Rs 12,600 here and an oak wood table around Rs 36,900.
Most of these tables have glass tops, but some with marble tops are also on display. One of the interesting finds here is a red and black table with curvy designs and faux leather chairs for Rs 27,900. They also have a compact 4-seater dining set, which is more like a huge box, ideal for serving quick meals to your family in the kitchen.
From the dining room, let’s go to the bedroom, which is on the ground floor. Most of the costs are made of teak or MDF (medium density fiberboard). A double cot (5 x 6.5) is priced at Rs 9,000 and a master bed (6 x 6.5) at Rs 15,000. They also offer bedroom sets that include a crib, end table, two closets, and a dresser. If you go for a queen size bed it would be Rs 40,000 and with a master bed it would be Rs 63,000. A nice find here was a smiley bed. With emoticons carved on the headboard and footboard, it is a good piece for the children’s room. This would cost Rs 19,500 and can be easily disassembled. It also has storage space below.
Then to relax you have comfortable sofas on the 5th floor. The base is usually teak, they say. The cushion is made of foam and polyfil and is washable. A 3+1+1 set would cost roughly Rs 18,000 here. They also have corner sofa sets and lounge sofa sets. The colors are mostly muted, except for the use of a peach hue in some. Leather sofa sets are also available here. They also have racks for tableware from Rs 8,000 to Rs 30,000. Then there are the coffee tables and the side tables. One of the side tables that caught our eye had its base decorated with stars and a planet, in bright yellow and bright blue.
You can also take a look at the TV cabinets (basic or with a swivel top). The basic one would cost 4,500 rupees, but there are some that even go up to 40,000 rupees. Thats not all. They also have a children’s study table with a clock and two small shelves on each side, priced at Rs 1,999. For the children in the nursery, they also have small car-shaped board games. Here they also have padded rocking chairs priced at Rs 12,999, as well as shoe racks and computer tables.
This place barely offers seasonal discounts. But they usually have their liquidation in November or February.
The verdict – They have almost all the furniture you would need for your home. The prices are more or less reasonable. Staff have numbers and other data at their fingertips. However, one thing you may need to check is the finish of some sofas. Furniture World has parking space available.
