Boho nesting tables — eclectic, handcrafted sets that layer a room and ship flat.
Boho is a style built on genuine craft — carved solid wood, woven cane, bone inlay and brass, finished to look collected rather than catalogued. We manufacture bohemian nesting tables in sets of two and three in Jodhpur, India's handcraft heartland, legally sourced and FSC and EUDR-ready, finished to your spec and packed flat for the container.
A graduated set that looks collected, not catalogued.
Bohemian style is the opposite of machined sameness — it rewards natural materials, hand-work and the eclectic mix of influences a traveller might gather over years. On a nesting set of two or three tables that tuck one beneath the next, the style shows in a few signatures: solid-wood bodies with grain you can read, hand-carved or latticework aprons, panels of woven cane or rattan, bone-inlay or mother-of-pearl tops, brass cladding or inlay, and round or drum silhouettes that soften a room. Finishes stay warm and lived-in rather than high-gloss. The nesting format suits boho especially well, because each table in the set can carry a slightly different top, pattern or finish — so the mix-and-match layering the look prizes is built in, not bolted on. None of this is a trend we chase: it is the carved-wood, inlay and metalware craft Jodhpur and its sister clusters have exported for generations. For buyers, the appeal is margin and story — a compact, giftable footprint that photographs beautifully for e-commerce, ships dense flat-packed, and mixes across a whole room of accent chairs, mirrors and planters.
Materials and detail that define the set.
Every boho nesting table we build has a genuine solid-wood heart — we do not position as a plywood or panel supplier — combined with the natural and handcrafted materials below. Mix them across the set to hit a specific look, from pared-back Scandi-boho to richly layered global eclectic.
| Element | What it brings to a boho nesting set |
|---|---|
| Solid wood | Sheesham, mango, acacia, teak and reclaimed wood — visible grain, carved aprons, turned or tapered legs |
| Cane & rattan | Hand-woven panels and wrapped frames for texture and an airy, natural feel on lighter tables in the set |
| Bone inlay | Hand-set geometric and floral patterns over resin ground — a signature boho top, stepped in scale down the nest |
| Mother-of-pearl | Iridescent shell inlay for a richer, light-catching accent table |
| Brass | Sheet cladding, inlay strips and antiqued accents for warmth and shine |
| Wrought iron | Powder-coated bolt-on bases, hairpin and sculptural legs under a wood or stone top — built for commercial wear |
| Marble & stone | Honed or carved tops from Rajasthan quarries for a grounded, tactile surface and a premium upgrade |
| Finishes | Natural, honey, walnut, limed, whitewashed, distressed, antique and hand-painted |
Because inlay, cane and finish vary from piece to piece, we recommend approving a physical set before production. Request a boho nesting table sample set and we will send material, pattern and finish references for your range. To build around one material, see the bone-inlay material guide or the cane and rattan guide.
Two or three tables, graduated to nest and finished to spec.
Round and drum silhouettes carry the boho look best, but we also build square, rectangular and free-form live-edge tops. Tables step down roughly 8–12 cm per piece so each tucks flush beneath the next. Every dimension below is an indicative starting point — top shape, wood thickness and finish are made to your specification for contract and private-label programmes.

A hand-made set, with a paper trail that clears customs.
A bohemian look should never mean a messy border file. Because many boho sets use Dalbergia sissoo (sheesham), timber legality matters at import — so every set ships with FSC chain-of-custody on request, Vriksh timber-legality verification, and EUDR-ready geolocation and deforestation-free due diligence, with CITES-compliant handling of sheesham. We provide US Lacey Act declaration support, UK Timber Regulation coverage, and CARB / TSCA Title VI formaldehyde-compliant finishes, backed by SEDEX / SMETA social audit, ISO and SGS inspection, and ISPM-15 heat-treated export packing. Certificate references go directly to serious buyers — never published.
| Area | Our standard |
|---|---|
| Timber legality | Vriksh verified · CITES-compliant sheesham |
| Sustainability | FSC chain-of-custody on request · reclaimed lines |
| EU / UK | EUDR-ready · geolocation · UKTR |
| US market | Lacey Act support · CARB / TSCA finishes |
| Social & quality | SEDEX / SMETA · ISO · SGS inspection |

Built to stay beautiful through real living-room use.
Wood bodies and legs are kiln-dried to a stable moisture content before joinery, with mortise-and-tenon and dowelled joints that stay tight under daily loading — and because the smaller tables slide in and out, we build the nesting tolerances so pieces glide without scuffing. Day to day, the set needs only a dust with a soft dry cloth and an occasional wipe with a slightly damp one; blot spills rather than letting them sit, since standing moisture marks any wood. Cane panels keep their shape best in normally humid rooms and can be lightly vacuumed; brass is wiped with a soft cloth and, if polished rather than lacquered, refreshed occasionally. Bone-inlay and mother-of-pearl tops are sealed in production and should be cleaned gently without abrasives to protect the pattern, and coasters are wise under hot or wet items on natural and marble tops. Keep the set out of prolonged direct sun to hold colour. Because the bodies are solid hardwood, minor marks can be sanded and re-finished rather than replaced, and powder-coated iron bases resist chipping. Full care and finish guidance ships with every order so your buyers and venue staff give consistent advice.
Boho nesting table sourcing, answered.
What makes a nesting table set boho?
A boho (bohemian) nesting set leans on natural materials, hand-work and eclectic, global detail rather than machined uniformity — exactly the handcraft Jodhpur has exported for generations. On a set of two or three graduated tables that shows up as solid wood with visible grain, hand-carved or latticework aprons, woven cane or rattan panels, bone-inlay or mother-of-pearl tops, brass cladding, turned or tapered legs, and round or drum silhouettes in warm, lived-in finishes. Because each table in the set can carry a slightly different top or pattern, the mix-and-match look is intrinsic to the style.
What materials and woods do you use for boho nesting tables?
We build boho nesting tables around a solid-wood heart — sheesham (Indian rosewood), mango, acacia, teak and reclaimed wood — combined with the materials that define the style: hand-cut cane and rattan, bone-inlay and mother-of-pearl, brass cladding and inlay, powder-coated wrought-iron bases, and marble or stone tops. Every table carries at least one genuine solid-wood component; we do not position as a plywood or panel supplier.
Can boho nesting tables ship flat-pack or knock-down?
Yes. Many boho nesting sets ship knock-down or flat-pack (RTA), with removable legs or bolt-on metal bases, which lowers freight cost and breakage and maximises container density — ideal for large importers and online sellers. Carved, cane and inlay tops are protected in production and packed to arrive clean. Fully assembled sets are available where a carved drum or inlay build requires it.
What sizes do boho nesting tables come in?
A set of two or three graduates so each table tucks beneath the next. Largest-table heights typically run about 55–65 cm with stepped heights down the set, and tops can be round, drum, square, rectangular or free-form live-edge. Diameters and widths step down roughly 8–12 cm per table so the nest sits flush. Every dimension, top shape and wood thickness is made to your specification for contract and private-label programmes.
What is your minimum order for boho nesting tables?
A trial or sample set can ship LCL (part-container) so you approve the wood, finish, carving and inlay first. For best wholesale pricing thereafter, one 20ft full container load is our standard minimum, and we consolidate boho nesting tables with coffee tables, side tables, accent chairs, mirrors and décor into a single mixed, compliant container.
Can you make boho nesting tables to our own design and brand?
Yes. We work as ODM (our catalogue designs) and OEM (your drawings, dimensions, finishes and private-label or retail-ready packaging), including custom CNC and hand carving, bone-inlay and cane work to pattern, bespoke metal bases, flat-pack builds for lower freight, and branded or Amazon-FBA-ready packaging for marketplace listings.
Sample the carving, inlay and finish, then ship from one container up.
Approve the wood, carving, cane and inlay on a physical sample set, then scale from a trial order to repeat container volumes on a 30–45 day lead time — QC-governed and documented for your market. Compare woods, shapes and builds on the nesting tables hub, or build a full eclectic room with matching boho coffee tables.
