This Anglo-Indian settee dates from the nineteenth century and is made of bleached timber, cane, and linen. The decorative light brown frame has a high, arched back with woven cane panels, intricate floral and foliate carving along the cresting, and carved face masks terminating the armrests. The piece stands on carved scroll legs at the front and includes a fitted grey linen cushion resting on the original cane seat. Measuring 120 cm high, 184 cm wide, and 51 cm deep, this seating item works well in a hallway, drawing room, or bedroom. Position this settee against a living room wall or place it in a spacious reception room to provide traditional seating. The neutral tones of the bleached wood and grey fabric integrate easily with various interior colour palettes while offering a statement historic silhouette. Regular care involves gentle dusting of the wooden carvings and vacuuming the fabric cushion on a low setting.

FAQs

Anglo-Indian furniture refers to pieces produced in India during British colonial rule, combining European forms and furniture typologies with traditional Indian carving techniques and local hardwoods.

These settees were predominantly crafted from dense hardwoods such as teak or rosewood, frequently featuring hand-woven cane back panels and seat bases suited to humid climates.

Authentic pieces display intricate relief carving incorporating indigenous motifs alongside European Regency silhouettes, combined with traditional joinery and woven cane panels.

Position the piece against a plain wall to highlight its carved cresting and silhouette, complementing the light timber tones with natural linen soft furnishings and neutral decor.

Keep the item away from direct sunlight and heat sources, dusting carved surfaces gently with a soft brush and occasionally dampening the reverse of the cane panel to retain flexibility.
