About the Item

An Anglo-Indian geometric front mahogany coffer on base from the 19th century, with lift top, carved panels, two drawers, cabriole legs and lateral handles. Hand-crafted during the 19th century, this Anglo-Indian mahogany coffer features a rectangular lid with twisted accents on the edges, that lifts up to reveal a dark interior convenient to store blankets and linen. It is the two-toned façade however, which attracts our attention with its geometric décor flanked with studs in the upper section. The center is occupied by ornate hardware while the lower part is made of two drawers. Their dovetail construction reveals the piece's age. The sides present C-scroll handles allowing the piece to be moved more easily, this item was therefore a travelling piece. The ensemble is raised on four cabriole legs on trifid feet. With its two toned finish and skillfully carved geometric décor, this Anglo-Indian coffer on base from the 19th century will bring an exotic touch of elegance to any home, placed in a living room or bedroom!
