Mid 19th Century Anglo Indian Carved Padouk Open Armchair with English Regency Influences

19th century
Description

A mid 19th century (circa 1850) Anglo Indian carved padouk open armchair, probably from the Bombay region, with strong influences of English Regency furniture designs.

This highly decorative armchair consists of a shaped top rail with foliate and stylised scroll carved decoration, the shaped back with central cane panel.

This leads down to the scroll arms with foliate carving to the arm supports with a cane seat, the front and side seat rails with floral and foliate carved decoration with small shaped lower brackets.

The armchair is supported by cabriole legs to the front with acanthus carved decoration with unusual scroll design to the back terminating with carved paw feet and outswept legs to the back.

The chair can be used as it is or seat pads or cushions can be added for more comfort, the seat pads shown are for photographic purposes only and are not included with the chair.

Reference: similar influenced chairs can be found in the book ‘Furniture From British India and Ceylon’ by Amin Jaffer, pages 334-339

This armchair is in very good condition for age, is of stable construction and can go straight into a home.

FAQs

Anglo-Indian Regency furniture refers to 19th-century pieces produced in British India by local artisans, adapting classical English Regency forms using native hardwoods and traditional carving techniques.

These chairs were primarily constructed from dense indigenous hardwoods such as padouk, rosewood, or teak, frequently featuring hand-woven cane panels designed for air circulation in tropical climates.

Authentic colonial pieces exhibit detailed hand-carved flora or foliage motifs, original woven cane panels, and robust mortise-and-tenon construction using heavy exotic timbers.

Positioning an ornate carved armchair alongside tailored modern upholstery creates contrast, pairing effectively with minimalist side tables and neutral natural-fibre floor coverings.

Apply clear beeswax polish periodically to maintain the timber frame, while keeping the piece away from direct heat sources to stop the cane weave from drying out or splitting.
