  • ObjectDecorative Boxes
  • Period19th century
  • StyleAnglo-Indian / Kashmiri
  • MaterialWood, lacquer, pigments

  • MotifsPaisley pattern, Hand-painted borders, Floral motifs
  • SizeH 10.8 cm (4 in) x W 19.8 cm (8 in) x D 7.5 cm (3 in)

Kashmiri decorative boxes originate from a centuries-old tradition of paper-mache and woodwork patronised by royal courts, featuring intricate hand-painted motifs influenced by Persian and Mughal designs.

These pieces are typically constructed from light wood or compressed paper pulp, layered with plaster, finely hand-painted with mineral or vegetable pigments, and sealed with a protective varnish.

Authenticity is determined by examining the hand-ground pigments, natural ageing of the lacquer, the delicacy of the brushwork, and the presence of historical wear consistent with nineteenth-century production.

Position the piece on a plain surface such as a console or bookshelf to let the colourful patterns stand out, creating a focal point that contrasts with minimalist or neutral surroundings.

Keep the item out of direct sunlight to prevent pigment fading, avoid moisture, and clean only with a soft, dry cloth without chemical polishes.
