Sheesham wood TV units — dense Indian-rosewood media consoles for export.
Sheesham is the wood Jodhpur is known for — a dense, heavy Indian rosewood that takes real weight and rewards the eye. Under a television, soundbar and streaming kit it stays flat and square; across the front, its golden-brown grain and dark streaking read as a true statement piece. We manufacture sheesham wood TV units in Jodhpur — stable hardwood carcasses, built-in cable management — CITES-compliant and legally sourced, FSC and EUDR-ready, finished to your spec and shipped from a single trial order up to repeat container volumes.
Hardwood weight under the screen, rosewood grain that sells the room.
A media console is among the hardest-worked pieces in the home. It carries the dead weight of a large television and soundbar, holds streaming boxes and games consoles that run warm, and takes constant handling as cables are swapped and drawers opened. Sheesham — Indian rosewood, Dalbergia sissoo — is built for that load. It is a genuinely dense, heavy hardwood whose interlocked grain and natural oils give it excellent dimensional stability, so a long, low cabinet resists warping and stays square while its doors and drawers keep running true for years. That density also grips screws, hinges and runners firmly, which is what keeps a wide media unit solid long after a softer timber would have worked loose. What makes sheesham a retailer's favourite, though, is the look: a deep golden-brown that darkens to chocolate, shot through with dramatic darker streaking and a soft natural lustre, with fine figure that also takes hand-carving and turned detail beautifully — exactly the warm, substantial focal piece shoppers photograph. Correctly kiln-dried and finished, it is a classic indoor wood for living rooms, media rooms, lounges and hospitality floors.

Colour and streaking vary from one sheesham board to the next, which is why we recommend approving a physical finish panel before production. Request a sheesham TV unit sample and we will send grain and finish references for your range. For the full species profile, see the sheesham wood material guide.
Compact consoles to long low media credenzas.
Every dimension below is a standard starting point — we build sheesham TV units to your exact width, height, door count and internal layout for contract, retail and private-label programmes. As a rule of thumb, allow the cabinet to sit 15-30 cm wider than the screen's footprint on each side.
| Type | Suits screen | Width | Depth | Height |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Compact console | Up to ~55 in | 110-130 cm · 43-51 in | 38-42 cm · 15-17 in | 45-50 cm · 18-20 in |
| Standard media unit | ~55-65 in | 140-160 cm · 55-63 in | 40-45 cm · 16-18 in | 45-55 cm · 18-22 in |
| Wide low credenza | ~65-85 in | 180-200 cm · 71-79 in | 42-48 cm · 17-19 in | 45-60 cm · 18-24 in |
| Tall / entertainment unit | ~55-65 in | 150-180 cm · 59-71 in | 42-45 cm · 17-18 in | 60-75 cm · 24-30 in |
Build options
Two-, three- or four-bay fronts; drawer banks; cabinet doors; open soundbar and console shelves; adjustable internal shelving; carved or fluted fronts and turned legs that show off sheesham's figure. Rear cable cut-outs, pass-through ports and vented backs come standard, with brass, matt-black iron or turned-wood hardware and optional soft-close runners and hinges.
Finishes
Natural, clear-matt to let the rosewood grain speak, honey, walnut or deep-brown tones, plus lightly distressed options — in CARB / TSCA Title VI formaldehyde-compliant formulations, with sealed satin or matt tops that wipe clean and take the heat of AV equipment.
Packing & shipping
Assembled or knockdown (flat-pack / RTA) to cut freight and breakage, with carton, retail-ready, Amazon-FBA-ready or branded packaging. ISPM-15 heat-treated export packing, shipped FOB or CIF from Mundra / Nhava Sheva.
One console, several channels.
Living & media rooms
The classic use — a long, low console that carries the screen and soundbar, hides the cables and stores media behind warm rosewood grain. Sheesham's weight and figure make it the piece buyers feature in the catalogue and style for the room set.
Retail & online sellers
A dense hardwood console with real grain photographs beautifully and ships flat. We supply retail-ready and Amazon-FBA-ready packaging for independent stores, chains and online sellers running a sheesham programme.
Hospitality & contract
Hotel-room and lounge media units that take daily handling. Sheesham's density and sealed finishes stand up to commercial use; build to hospitality and contract furniture specs.
Indian rosewood, documented to clear your market cleanly.
Sheesham is Dalbergia sissoo, a CITES-listed species, so its legality paperwork matters more than for any other furniture wood — and we handle it in full. Every sheesham TV unit ships with CITES-compliant handling, Vriksh timber-legality verification and documented chain of custody, with FSC chain-of-custody on request, plus EUDR-ready geolocation and deforestation-free due diligence. We provide US Lacey Act declaration support, UK Timber Regulation coverage, and CARB / TSCA Title VI formaldehyde-compliant finishes, with social and quality assurance under SEDEX / SMETA, ISO and SGS inspection, and ISPM-15 heat-treated export packing. Certificate references go directly to serious buyers — never published.

Finished to your brief, built to carry years of service.
Sheesham's density and natural oils are its headline durability features: a kiln-dried, properly finished sheesham top carries the sustained weight of a large television and soundbar and resists the dents and ring-marks that quickly tire a softer timber on a hard-working console. Day to day, wipe with a soft, slightly damp cloth and dry immediately — no furniture wood should be left wet. Avoid harsh solvents and abrasive pads, and keep the piece out of prolonged direct sun, which can lighten the rich colour over time. A periodic wax or light re-oil feeds the surface and keeps the grain and lustre deep. The interlocked grain and dense fibre mean hinges and runners stay firmly seated, so doors and drawers keep opening smoothly and the long top sits flat. Vented backs and open console shelving let AV equipment run cool. Full care and finish guidance ships with every order; for the complete routine, see how to care for sheesham, so your retail and hospitality customers get consistent advice.
Sheesham TV unit sourcing, answered.
Is sheesham wood good for a TV unit?
Yes. Sheesham — Indian rosewood, Dalbergia sissoo — is a dense, heavy hardwood that carries the weight of a large television, soundbar and streaming boxes without bowing, and resists the knocks and scratches of a hard-working media console. Its interlocked grain and natural oils give it excellent dimensional stability, so a long, low cabinet stays square and its doors and drawers keep running true for years. The rich golden-brown colour with darker streaking makes each unit a genuine focal point. It is a classic indoor living-room and media-room wood.
What size sheesham TV unit do I need for my television?
As a guide, a media console should be at least as wide as the TV's stand and, for better balance and soundbar room, 15-30 cm (6-12 in) wider on each side. Our standard sheesham TV units run roughly 120-200 cm (47-79 in) wide for screens from about 50 to 85 inches, 40-45 cm (16-18 in) deep and 45-60 cm (18-24 in) high so the screen sits at a comfortable seated eye line. We build to your exact width, height, bay count and internal layout for retail, contract and private-label programmes.
Is sheesham (Indian rosewood) legal and compliant to import?
Yes. Dalbergia sissoo is listed under CITES, and we handle it in full compliance with Vriksh timber-legality verification and documented chain of custody, with FSC chain-of-custody available on request. Every shipment is EUDR-ready with geolocation and deforestation-free due diligence, and we support US Lacey Act declarations and UK Timber Regulation, so your container clears customs cleanly.
Do your sheesham TV units include cable management and ventilation?
Yes. We build in rear cable cut-outs and pass-through ports, open or vented back panels for AV components, and open shelving sized for soundbars, streaming boxes and gaming hardware. Drawers and cabinet doors store remotes and media, and we add wire channels and adjustable shelves to your specification so the finished unit runs cool and stays tidy.
What is your minimum order for sheesham TV units?
A trial or sample order can ship LCL (part-container). For best wholesale pricing thereafter, one 20ft full container load is our standard minimum, and we consolidate sheesham TV units with coffee tables, sideboards, bookshelves, décor and other categories into a single mixed container.
How do you care for a sheesham wood TV unit?
Wipe with a soft, slightly damp cloth and dry immediately; avoid standing water, harsh solvents and prolonged direct sun, which can lighten the colour over time. A periodic wax or light re-oil keeps the grain and natural lustre deep. Sheesham's density and oils mean it resists everyday knocks and the sustained weight of AV equipment well, and full care and finish guidance ships with every order.
Sample the grain and finish, then ship from one container up.
Approve the grain, colour and hardware on a physical sample, then scale from a trial order to repeat container volumes on a 30-45 day lead time — QC-governed and documented for your market.
