In Jhalak's words

Two armchairs instead of a two-seater. It sounds like a small change and it is actually the difference between a room you can walk through and a room you edge around. Single seats can be pushed apart, angled towards the window, or moved to the corner when the family gathers — a two-seater has to stay where it was put.

We build the Compact on the same sal frame and the same foam as the full Suite. The three-seater sits at 180 cm rather than 200, which is deliberate: this set is for rooms where every centimetre of wall is already spoken for.

It is also the set we recommend to people furnishing a rented flat they may leave in two or three years. Five separate-ish pieces move far more easily than three heavy ones, and single-seaters find a use in any next home, even a smaller one.

“In a small room, two chairs will always beat one two-seater — that is not sales talk, it is just how the floor works.”— Jhalak Bahadur Khatri, proprietor

The build

Frame

Seasoned sal wood

Joinery

Mortise-and-tenon

Double-needle top stitch

Ask us for an offcut of the actual foam going into your sofa and we will hand it to you. Come to the workshop and push the bare frame with your own hands before it is covered — most people who do that stop worrying.

Delivery and warranty, in plain language

Free delivery inside Ring Road, quoted honestly at cost anywhere else in Nepal. Fifty per cent advance when you sign the written specification, balance on delivery — and the specification lists the model, exact size, fabric name and batch, foam densities, leg finish and date, so there is nothing left to remember or argue about.

Five years on the frame and joinery. Five years on foam collapse. One year on stitching, zips and mechanisms. If something goes wrong, send a photograph and your ledger serial number to 9849239091 on WhatsApp — that is the whole claim process. Your fabric is reserved from the same roll for six months, so a matching extra piece actually matches.
