[QUOTE="Any Jewelry, post: 1689490, member: 2844"]Welcome Danial. The Sultan of Brunei has numerous lounge suites. I can find one which is gilded, but it looks different from yours. As Ghopper said, much of it seems to be inspired by antique European furniture, but that is the general style of palace furniture around the world. It is also a style that has been reproduced in Asia, especially in neigbouring Indonesia, in particular on Java and Madura. This is yours: [IMG]https://www.antiquers.com/attachments/e9f998be-6418-4902-8353-d0c7cd421ea7-jpeg.236221/[/IMG] This is the Brunei Palace gilded one I found: [IMG]https://www.straitstimes.com/sites/default/files/styles/article_pictrure_780x520_/public/articles/2019/07/16/ST_20190716_MIBRUNEI16_4979296.jpg?itok=jQjFwm-v×tamp=1563211808[/IMG] You can see more of the carving and the rounded shape of the top on this site: [URL]https://bruneipe.dfa.gov.ph/newsroom/embassy-news/240-secretary-dominguez-conveys-greetings-on-brunei-sultan-s-73rd-birth-anniversary[/URL][/QUOTE]
