An Anglo-Indian carved teak and cane pair of armchairs, circa 1910

£995.00

A handsome pair of Anglo-Indian carved teak and cane armchairs dating from the early 20th century, combining richly carved timber with particularly decorative hand-woven cane work.

Each back is formed with a striking circular radiating cane panel, centred by a turned teak boss and surrounded by intricate concentric weaving. Further cane panels are incorporated into the sides beneath the shaped armrests, while the solid teak frames are embellished with carved foliate and scrolling decoration.

The shaped crest rails and aprons are punctuated by carved floral motifs, the whole raised on short carved legs terminating in stylised paw feet. The warm colour and grain of the teak contrast beautifully with the finely worked cane, creating a particularly decorative pair of Anglo-Indian armchairs from the period.

The seat and loose back cushions have been later upholstered in a neutral fabric, providing a sympathetic contrast to the original teak and cane structures.

Condition: in good antique condition with wear, marks and variations in colour consistent with age and use. The cushions and upholstery are later replacements. Please refer to photographs.

Dimensions: Xcm high, Xcm wide, Xcm deep; seat height Xcm (TBC)
