What You Need to Know Before Turning Bones into Art Pieces
At Essenthome, our furniture is not just furniture—it is art, heritage, and craftsmanship combined. The stunning bone inlay designs you see on our dressers, nightstands, and console tables start from a material that’s as unique as the final product: ethically sourced bone.
The idea of turning bones into art might sound unusual, but this centuries-old technique is what makes bone inlay furniture so special. Before you invest in or appreciate one of these art pieces, here’s what you need to know about how bones become intricate patterns of beauty and luxury.
Bone Inlay is an Ancient Craft
Bone inlay furniture has its roots in the royal palaces of Rajasthan, India, where artisans created luxury décor for kings and queens. This ancient art form involves carefully hand-cutting pieces of bone and placing them into intricate floral or geometric patterns that are filled with colored resin.
At Essenthome, we continue this tradition by working with highly skilled artisans who have mastered this craft over generations. Each piece takes days or even weeks to complete, making it a true labor of love.
Ethical Sourcing Matters
Before bones are turned into art, they are ethically and responsibly sourced. We at Essenthome are committed to sustainable and cruelty-free practices. The bones used are typically by-products, ensuring that no harm is caused to animals purely for decorative purposes.
This means that every Essenthome bone inlay table or dresser you buy is not only beautiful but also ethically crafted.
Every Piece is Handmade and Unique
Unlike mass-produced furniture, bone inlay furniture is 100% handmade. Each small bone piece is hand-carved, polished, and precisely placed by artisans to form patterns that reflect both heritage and modern style.
No two bone inlay pieces are ever identical, which means your bone inlay coffee table or console is truly one-of-a-kind. This uniqueness is what makes bone inlay furniture a favorite among luxury home décor enthusiasts.
It’s More Than Just Furniture – It’s Art
When you place a bone inlay dresser in your bedroom or a bone inlay console table in your hallway, you’re not just filling a space—you’re creating an artistic statement. These pieces blend functionality with fine art, adding depth and character to any room.
Our customers often describe bone inlay furniture as “art you can live with,” and that’s exactly what we aim to create at Essenthome.
Caring for Bone Inlay is Easy but Important
Before owning a bone inlay piece, you should know how to care for it to maintain its beauty for years. Here are a few quick tips:
Dust gently using a soft cloth or microfiber duster.
Avoid direct sunlight to prevent fading of bone and resin.
Use coasters and mats to prevent scratches and stains.
Stay away from harsh chemicals; mild cleaning is always best.
