This nineteenth-century Anglo-Indian wine cooler or cellarette takes the form of an elaborate sarcophagus box rendered in dark brown teak and hardwood. The piece displays dense foliate carving across every surface, including a heavily moulded lid, floral relief borders, and intricate pierced latticework panels to the main body. Small turned ball feet support the rectangular base beneath a traditional keyhole escutcheon. The timber carries a warm dark patina with natural grain variations from age and handling. Measuring 51 cm high, 84 cm wide, and 51 cm deep, the cellarette functions well as a distinctive display piece atop a large sideboard or serving table. In a contemporary home, it suits placement in a study, library, or formal dining room to store bottles, textiles, or personal collections while bringing traditional craftsmanship into the interior scheme.

FAQs

Anglo-Indian furniture originated during the British colonial period in India, blending traditional European furniture forms with intricate indigenous Indian carving techniques and native hardwoods such as teak and rosewood.

19th-century cellarettes were predominantly constructed from dense tropical hardwoods like mahogany, teak, and rosewood, often featuring hand-carved floral motifs, metal fittings, and lead or zinc linings designed to hold ice and wine bottles.

Authentic pieces feature dense hand-carved relief detailing, deep floral or foliate patterns, pierced latticework, dovetail joinery, and natural wear patterns consistent with hand-tool craftsmanship from the era.

Place the piece on a sideboard, console table, or wide shelf as a textured accent, combining its carved surface with clean-lined contemporary ceramics or metallic accessories to create balanced visual contrast.

Dust the carved recesses gently with a soft, natural-bristle brush, keep the item away from direct heat sources and moisture, and periodically apply a high-quality beeswax polish to protect the finish.
