Bombay Presidency carved rosewood armchair 1850
A highly decorative mid 19th century profusely carved hardwood armchair from the Bombay area of India of superb quality -
This chair consists of a profusely carved and pierced arched back depicting animals and foliage with a central oval panel with a carved lion and birds.
The shaped arms, also carved and pierced terminate with the head of a bear or beast with vine leaves coming from their mouths.
Original cushion
Below the seat is a foliate border which continues all around the chair and a serpentine shaped carved & pierced apron below this to the front.
The legs consist of a combination of animals, birds and fruit to create very decorative supports and terminate with peg feet.
This style of chair and carving is typical to that made in the Bombay area of India in the mid-late 19th century and it was thought that the highly carved furniture was a sign of the owner being affluent. Every possible surface was covered in carving, typically decorated with foliage and flowers and later animals such as birds, lions and beasts.
Several bits missing so will need to be restored. A very rare example
