Urban Ladder
Urban Ladder’s really changed the game of furniture shopping in India. Sitting in the comfort of our houses, we can pretty much decide how we would like for it to look. Contemporary modular kitchen designs to minimalist wardrobes, easy folding book shelves to divans that look like they belong to royalty, Urban Ladder has you sorted and how! They have also made it here to our list of best places online to score home decor.
The Pink Chair
Add a touch of elegance or a splash of colour with The Pink Chair’s range of bespoke upholstered seating options. While styles for chairs {wing chairs, arm chairs and feature chairs} are aplenty, there are also sofas like the Camelback with its upright seating and the sleek Tuxedo. Oh, and handcrafted pieces of ottomans, too! Once you’ve selected the design you like, you can discuss details like the colours, prints and upholstery. Read more about The Pink Chair here.
