Cupboard - Teak, mango - Haveli-Style Cabinet

19th Century Rajasthani Antique Door Cabinet in Mango Wood with Original Polychrome Front – 219 cm Description An impressive Rajasthani cabinet constructed in solid mango wood, featuring an authentic 19th century antique door front with original polychrome surface. The façade originates from Rajasthan and dates to the late 19th century (circa 1880–1900). The richly carved upper frieze is decorated with scrolling vine motifs and stylised floral elements, framed by bold architectural corner blocks. The layered turquoise-blue and oxidised red pigments have developed a naturally aged patina over time, creating depth, texture and character that cannot be replicated. The doors retain traditional iron studs and original hardware, reinforcing the historic authenticity of the front. The cabinet body has been professionally constructed in mango wood, providing structural stability and making the piece fully functional for contemporary interiors while preserving the antique character of the façade. This type of architectural repurposing — combining antique elements with a solid cabinet structure — is highly appreciated in today’s interior market, as it offers both authenticity and usability. Wear, paint loss and surface irregularities are consistent with age and contribute to its historical character. ⸻ Dimensions Height: 219 cm Width: 132 cm Depth: 64 cm Weight: approx. 190 kg Delivery & Transport Information Delivery is usually carried out by us personally to ensure careful handling and safe arrival of the furniture.
