[QUOTE="Any Jewelry, post: 1647701, member: 2844"]Welcome Melanie. Your chairs are perfect for your wedding, they are indeed wedding chairs from the Punjab, the India-Pakistan border region. Most are painted in 'happy wedding colours' like red. Yours could have been stripped by a previous owner. The red cushions bring the colour symbolism back, so you are fine to go ahead and get married.:happy: Anglo Indian, Indo-Portuguese or Indo-Dutch furniture is European type furniture made in India or Sri Lanka, using traditional Indian crafts, woods and style of decoration. For instance, a European type four poster bed, made of ebony and handcarved with Indian lotus flower decoration. Since these chairs have no relation to any European tradtion, they are not Anglo Indian but traditional Punjabi.[/QUOTE]
