WOODEN CHEST WITH INLAY WORK
This beautiful and decorated collectible is a wooden chest from Rajasthan.
The chest is made of hard wood and has intricate metal inlay work all over it. The art of laying metal wires into wood is a delicate art which needs highly skilled inlay artists. The lid of the chest has a black Elephant and the initials of the owner carved on it. The chest also has various small compartments in it to store different things. Such exquisitely carved chests were used for many purposes – as a jewellery box, a dowry box given as a part of the bride’s trousseau . This particular chest also has a mirror with an ornately decorated wooden frame suggesting that it must have been used as a jewellery or a dowry box.
This ornate vintage chest is an instant collector’s piece that has been handcrafted by master artisans. It will light up any living space and can even be used to store trinkets.
