About solid wood verification
'Solid sheesham' is the most abused phrase in furniture sales. Veneer over MDF can look identical from the front.
We check end grain, edges, weight, the back and the underside, and identify the species. The report says clearly what the piece is made of.

Solid Wood Verification: questions
How can I tell if furniture is solid wood?
Look at edges and end grain: solid wood grain runs through; veneer shows a thin layer over a board core.
Is sheesham always solid?
No. Sheesham veneer on board is common. Verification tells you which you have.
Can you inspect at the seller's place?
Yes. Share the location and we meet you there. The report is written for you, not the seller.
Do I have to buy from you afterwards?
No. The inspection is a stand-alone service.
