Al Barasty sells very beautiful rosewood furniture to the budget-conscious. When looking at furniture, or anything, there is always a trade-off. You can get top-flight quality, but that often comes at a price, or ease a little on quality, and get a phenomenal deal. Al Barasty is one of those places. The rosewood desk that we bought, sells for 300 BHD. The same desk retails at Khazana (which is at the end of American Alley) for 1,295 BHD. That is not a typo. Through negotiating, you can get Khazana down to 750 BHD. Still, that is 450 BHD more relative to Al Barasty.

I will say that the quality at Khazana is outstanding. However, it is not 450 BHD extra outstanding. Yasid at Al Barasty will give you the absolute best prices. Having shopped many places, I don't think anyone can beat the prices at Al Barasty, and he will undercut just about anyone. You just need to understand that the furniture sold at Al Barasty is extremely nice, and I definitely recommend people to utilize their services. We purchased two very beautiful pieces through Al Barasty, but the quality takes a slight ding.

Overall, Al Barasty is great, and Yasid is a pleasure to work worth.
