This Hoshiarpur side table originates from the Anglo-Indian period around 1910, constructed from dark brown teak with intricate bone and ebony inlay. The circular top features a detailed central bone inlay depiction of the Taj Mahal accompanied by flying birds, framed within elaborate floral scrollwork. Three supporting legs are meticulously carved into elephant heads complete with protruding tusks and stylized ear panels, terminating in distinct trunk feet. Natural wood grain variations are visible across the dark polished surface alongside fine geometric border inlays along the outer rim and apron. Standing 48.3 cm high with a width and depth of 45.7 cm, the table serves functionally as an end-of-a-sofa stand or a decorative display surface in a drawing room or study. The compact tripod profile allows it to occupy minimal floor space while functioning as a striking accent piece within a traditional interior scheme.

FAQs

Hoshiarpur inlay furniture originates from the Punjab region of India, renowned for intricate bone, ivory, or shell inlay set into dark hardwoods such as teak and rosewood.

These tables are typically constructed using solid hardwoods including teak or shisham, decorated with inlay patterns crafted from camel bone, brass wire, or contrasting dark woods.

Authentic examples display hand-cut joinery, intricate floral or geometric borders flush with the wood, and hand-carved sculptural elements such as elephant-head legs.

Position the table alongside an armchair or within an empty corner to serve as a functional accent piece that introduces pattern and historical texture.

Maintain the wood surface with natural beeswax polish, keep the piece away from direct heat sources to prevent shrinkage, and dust gently using a soft microfibre cloth.
