  • ObjectSide Chairs

This pair of Victorian Anglo-Indian side chairs originates from the late 19th century and exemplifies the Anglo-Indian Colonial style. Each chair comprises a dark brown hardwood frame paired with multicolour floral tapestry upholstery in shades of cream, pink, and green. The structural design incorporates deep relief wood carving, intricate foliage aprons, and prominent carved mask knees, supported by carved feet. The upholstery covers a low, deep seat and an asymmetrical, pointed high backrest. Suitable for placement in a traditional living room, study, or hallway, these seating pieces serve as decorative side or corner chairs. The dense carving and detailed textile pattern suit period interiors and eclectic spaces. Due to the lack of recorded dimensions, the chairs accommodate standard occasional seating use within a domestic setting.

FAQs

Anglo-Indian and Burmese furniture developed during the nineteenth century, blending traditional British Victorian forms with intricate regional carving techniques, openwork aprons, and native hardwoods.

These pieces were typically crafted from dense native hardwoods such as teak, padauk, or rosewood, often paired with woven cane or fabric upholstery.

Authenticity is indicated by detailed hand-carved joinery, deep relief carving depicting regional flora or fauna, dense heavy timber, and subtle signs of historical hand-tooling.

Position a pair as accent seating alongside minimalist contemporary sofas to create a visual focal point that contrasts ornate woodwork with clean lines.

Dust timber regularly with a soft dry cloth, apply natural beeswax polish periodically, and ensure textile upholstery is positioned away from direct sunlight to prevent fading.
