Painted Glazed Book Cabinet - 19th Century
This handsome Indian glazed teak painted book cabinet dates to the 19th century and displays the timeless elegance of traditional Indian craftsmanship. Constructed from solid teak, the cabinet features four fixed shelves, providing ample space for books, linens, or decorative pieces.

Its arched door panels and moulded cornice lend a subtle decorative flourish, while the glass-panelled doors allow the interior contents to be displayed attractively.
