Step into a world of regal charm and meticulous craftsmanship with this stunning Teak and Bone Inlay Chest—a piece that bridges history with timeless artistry. Originally crafted in India during the colonial era, this old teak chest harks back to the days of the Raj. It carries with it a sense of vintage grandeur, enhanced by the rich grain of solid teak wood that forms its base.
What makes this piece truly special is the intricate bone inlay work, which has been added later using the same traditional techniques that Indian artisans have practiced for centuries. Each motif, carved and laid by hand, is a testament to hours of patient labor and artistic dedication. The delicate floral and geometric patterns are not merely decorative—they are a reflection of India’s rich design heritage and storytelling through craft.
This chest isn’t just a storage solution; it’s a statement piece that adds elegance and cultural depth to any space—be it at the end of a bed, in a hallway, or as a centerpiece in a living room.
Due to the complexity of the hand-inlay process and the natural materials involved, each chest takes approximately 30 days to complete. No two pieces are exactly alike—each one tells its own story through subtle variations in wood grain and bone detailing.
Perfect for collectors, lovers of handcrafted decor, or anyone looking to bring a touch of heritage and luxury into their home.
Dimensions: 26 x 16 x 20 inches
