Each chair, measuring 22 inches wide, 21 inches deep, and 44 inches high, showcases intricate hand-carved details across the frame, characteristic of traditional Indian craftsmanship. The chairs feature a later distressed white painted finish, giving them a charmingly aged and bohemian aesthetic. The ornate carvings add a layer of visual texture and artistic interest, making these chairs a unique statement in any room. Perfect as accent chairs in a living room, dining area, or bedroom, this pair combines historical style with a light and airy finish.

These chairs are evocative of the Anglo-Indian furniture produced during the British colonial period in India (roughly the mid-19th to mid-20th century). This style represents a fascinating fusion of traditional Indian craftsmanship with European forms and tastes. Local artisans, often highly skilled in carving intricate patterns, adapted their techniques to create pieces that appealed to the colonial administrators and residents. The use of dense hardwoods and elaborate carving, sometimes depicting local flora, fauna, or architectural motifs, are hallmarks of this style. The later addition of a white painted finish, often distressed, adds a layer of modern bohemian or shabby chic appeal, transforming these historically rich pieces for contemporary interiors.
