<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Any Jewelry, post: 411762, member: 2844&quot;]Welcome, Brundel. Wonderful reading chair, are you sure you want to sell it?</p><p><br /></p><p>Thanks for tagging me kyra.<img src="styles/default/xenforo/smilies/smile.png" class="mceSmilie" alt=":)" unselectable="on" /></p><p>The style and colour look Indo-Portuguese or Indo-Dutch, in the style of the Portuguese or Dutch colonies in India and Sri Lanka. I agree with James, it is a revival chair, very beautifully made.</p><p>The design of the central flower (lotus?) even looks Javanese (Indonesian), another part of Asia where both the Portuguese and Dutch used to be.</p><p>Asian Colonial furniture can incorporate different styles, because craftspeople traveled from one colony to another. Indo-Dutch can also refer to colonial furniture from Indonesia.</p><p><br /></p><p>Generally this ebony or ebonized furniture is from Portuguese and Dutch India and Sri Lanka, and the Dutch-Indonesian style used and combined different woods.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
