Anglo Indian Teak Carved Pedestal Desk
About the Item
A late 19th century Anglo Indian Pedestal desk, profusely decorated with scrolling vines with abundant leaves and fruit. The desk carved on all sides, with two banks of three drawers in the pedestals and three short drawers along the frieze. Now with a green tooled leather top.
Exuding a blend of sophistication and historical allure, this late 19th-century Anglo-Indian teak desk is a remarkable fusion of functionality and artistry. Constructed entirely from resilient teak, the desk features an array of high-relief carvings that exhibit meticulous attention to detail.
The desk’s elaborate carvings depict intricate floral and foliate designs, a testament to the Indian cabinetmaker’s skill. The traditional form of the pedestal desk, a nod to the era’s British influence in India, adding a layer of historical context to its aesthetic appeal.
The desk’s practical design includes a series of 9 drawers, seamlessly incorporated into the detailed carving. Supported by four robustly turned bun feet, the desk’s structural integrity is as impressive as its visual charm.
