18th and 19th century Indo-Portuguese furniture

Indo-Portuguese furniture refers to furniture that was produced in India during the period when Portugal had a significant colonial presence in the country, roughly from the 16th to the 18th century. The style is characterized by a blend of Indian and Portuguese design elements, reflecting the cultural exchange that occurred during this time.

Indo-Portuguese furniture is often made from hardwoods such as teak and rosewood, and is typically intricately carved and ornamented. The furniture often features motifs such as floral and foliate designs, as well as religious iconography such as crosses and angels.

The style is particularly notable for its mix of Indian and European design elements. For example, a piece of Indo-Portuguese furniture might have a distinctly Indian shape or form, but be decorated with intricate Portuguese-style carving or inlay work.
