Dutch Colonial Chest on Stand From Ceylon -18th Century

Dutch Colonial Chest on Stand From Ceylon -18th Century

This majestic Indo-Dutch chest harks back to the colonial days and the 'Spice Wars'. Originally from colonial Ceylon (modern-day Sri-Lanka), it dates from the middle of the 18th century. It is beautifully constructed from jackfruit wood with ebony trim and beading. The intricate and flamboyant brass decoration makes this chest incredibly striking. It is an exceptional example of Indo-Dutch furniture and would have been owned by a wealthy trader travelling between Sri-Lanka, South India and Europe.

Perfect for storing bedding with three external drawers in the stand, making it practical as well as being visually beautiful. An impressive centrepiece for any room. 

From Ceylon (modern-day Sri-Lanka)
