Where Wood Is More Than Just Furniture
Hi there! We are KAMAYA WOODS and we are completely obsessed with turning beautiful chunks of wood into furniture with a story to tell. We are located right here in Dubai and design custom wood tables and epoxy resin furniture that literally have us tearing up when we've completed a design.
How about we introduce ourselves to you – Shiv and Chetna Dargan – just that. Just a few years ago we were just a couple of people that could not walk past an interesting piece of wood without stopping to touch it and think "I wonder what I could make out of this". The little weekend project in our tiny workshop (seriously, it was TINY) has somehow grown bigger than we ever imagined.
We still get butterflies when we encounter a perfectly imperfect slab of wood, and we still good-naturedly bicker over which epoxy color best complements a particular piece of wood grain. The difference now? We have an incredible team who love wood a little bit too much just like us, and customers coming to us from all over the world that trust us to build them their perfect pieces of dreams!
We make tables. But here's the thing — we don't make just tables. We take these amazing wood slabs (often still with their natural, wonky edges because mother nature knows what's best) and add crystal-clear epoxy resin that makes the grain look like it's glowing from the inside.
Because every piece of wood is different, no two of our tables are the same. We love that no two tables will ever be identical – just as no two trees are identical.
It's actually kind of sad how much we really hate the whole "one-size-fits-all" idea. Your space is unique, your style is unique, so why should your table be? We spend the time with you to make sure we are making exactly what you are dreaming of – to the millimeter if that's what you are dreaming of!
We only cut from single wood slabs. No parts-together bits, no messily meeting in the middle. If we can't build your table from a single beautiful slab, we will source a larger one or offer a different solution. We're stubborn like that.
You know those natural, crooked edges that reveal where the tree really stopped? We keep those. They are like the wood's signature, and we love them.
We love working in Dubai's amazing community, but we also can't help but get stoked when someone from the other side of the world decides to trust us with their vision. We have all sorts of links with wood suppliers in Indonesia and other magical places, so we can track down some pretty special stuff.
We do the best we can to keep our pricing fair, because we think everyone should have something beautiful in their home.
If you find something that you just can't live without from our ready stock, we can often have it completed and to you in 2-4 days. And sometimes we surprise ourselves.
We're the partners who began it all and still get down and dirty on every project. Shiv has this amazing eye for recognizing what ready-to-burn firewood will make beautiful furniture for everyone else, and Chetna is so good at knowing just the type of finish that will make a piece sing. We're a pair of yin-yang crazies, and somehow it fits.
We've been super fortunate to find artisans who care as much as we do. These are not just workers — they're artists who are also brilliant with wood and epoxy. Every single one has years of experience and, more importantly, genuine pride of ownership.
These guys are basically mind readers. They take your "I want something, you know… woodsy but elegant?" and somehow turn that into the perfect piece. They're tolerant of our indecision and they're amazing at making the impossible seem possible.
We collaborate with families who want a table they can pass down through generations, interior designers who entrust us with their most daring concepts, and restaurant owners who know that phenomenal furniture makes the whole experience better. You know, people who get excited by beautiful, one-of-a-kind things.
From the luxurious, upscale walnut that warms up any room, to the bold Mappa Burl that catches our attention every time, to our favorite, petrified wood that literally connects your dining room to the history of the earth — we find materials we get giddy about working with; the source of inspiration for our every morning.
We pledge to love your piece as much as you do. We think about how we're going to make it perfect from the first time you talk to us about your vision to when we install it in your space. Our epoxy work provides surfaces so clear that they feel almost magical while not being afraid to let you see and feel the warmth and character of the natural wood.
We're not in the furniture business – we're in the "dreams coming true" business!
