This Anglo-Indian pedestal table dates from 1860 in the gentleman's library style, constructed from warm brown teak and hardwood with a dark finish. The circular top displays a flat central panel surrounded by a heavily carved foliate border, resting on a turned central column above a sculpted tripod base with figural or animalistic paw feet. It shows minor surface wear consistent with age, including subtle variations in the grain and texture of the wood. Measuring 73 cm high, 52 cm wide, and 52 cm deep, this side table fits neatly at the end of a sofa or beside an armchair in a living room, study, or hallway. It holds a reading lamp, a small stack of books, or a drink while adding traditional character and detailed woodwork to the interior space.

FAQs

An Anglo Indian pedestal table is a piece of accent furniture crafted in India during the nineteenth century, combining European functional forms with intricate Indian hand-carving techniques.

These tables were typically constructed from indigenous dense hardwoods such as teak, rosewood, or shisham, featuring hand-carved floral, foliate, and mythological motifs.

Authentic pieces exhibit hand-saw marks, irregular peg joinery, deep hand-carved relief work, and natural surface wear consistent with dense native hardwoods like teak or rosewood.

Position the table as an accent piece beside an armchair, in a reading corner, or within a foyer to introduce sculptural texture and historical contrast to contemporary decor.

Dust regularly using a soft brush to clear intricate relief carving, apply natural beeswax sparingly to maintain moisture, and position the piece away from direct heat sources.
