C. 1900 Burmese British Colonial Kitchen Cabinet and Plate Rack

About the Item

This sturdy kitchen chest and pot rack was made from solid Teak wood and dates to the early 1900's. During the late British Empire in Burma much furniture was made in the Anglo-Indian style using native hardwoods and native furniture makers. Styles closely matched European styles of the period but colonial pieces tended to be much sturdier and heavier. Since teak wood is naturally resistant to insects and moisture, a surprisingly large amount of it has survived, especially in Burma, (now Myanmar). This piece has been lightly restored, with some added black surface varnish. Rangoon, Burma C. 1900. Comes in two parts. Many of these vintage colonial pieces have remained in use as merchant's cabinets or in offices. With moderate restoration, these British Colonial pieces can be brought back to full beauty and are sought after by collectors and connoisseurs. it should be noted that all of the piece is made from solid hardwood and no veneers or plywood was used, even on the back. This antique piece was brought to Thailand in 2020, restored, and sent to The United States in 2022.
