About

Grand Renaissance Hand Carved Oak & Caned Armchairs - Set of 6

This set of six Anglo-Indian armchairs, crafted in British Colonial India circa 1850-1900, showcases intricate hand-carved ebony or blackwood frames with woven cane seats and high backs, reflecting a fusion of European Baroque influences and Indian craftsmanship. Featuring elaborately carved crest rails, turned arm supports, and finely detailed aprons, these chairs were likely commissioned for a colonial estate, club, or official residence. The use of cane weaving, introduced by the Portuguese and favored by the British for its durability in tropical climates, enhances both function and aesthetic appeal. A prime example of 19th-century Anglo-Indian furniture, this highly collectible set is ideal for heritage interiors, luxury dining spaces, or historical collections, offering a timeless blend of colonial elegance and artisanal mastery.

Offered as a set of six, though individual acquisitions may be considered upon request.
