Description
Mid-20th Century Anglo-Indian Inlaid Dining Table
Fine quality large and decorative mid-20th century Anglo-Indian dining table, crafted in padouk and extensively inlaid with bone in floral designs. The oval top features three circular medallions of scrolling foliage and blossoms, set within a continuous floral border. The frieze is similarly inlaid, and the table is raised on twin octagonal pedestal bases, each panelled and decorated with matching inlaid motifs.
This type of work was produced in Northern India, particularly in Hoshiarpur and Rajasthan, where the Mughal tradition of inlaid furniture continued into the 20th century, often for export to the West. The craftsmanship and scale make this table ideal as a statement dining piece, comfortably seating 8.

Height: 75.5 cm (29.75 in.)
Condition:
Good overall with wear and surface marks consistent with age and use. Inlay largely intact, minor losses and imperfections as expected. The bases detach from the top for ease of transport.
