Indian Almirah Cabinet From Gujarat - 19thC
This solid teak 19th century Portuguese almirah cabinet is an excellent example of the Indo-Portuguese blend of styles. Incredibly stylish and timeless, the sunburst panels are typical of the Portuguese style and have been expertly carved. The core Portuguese occupation did not expand beyond Southern India, however, this cabinet comes from Gujarat further north showing how trade and styles transcended regional borders.
The porcelain handles are typical of the period and are another hallmark of its European origins.
