Description
DeepL TranslateA large Indian antique Damchiya chest boasts wonderful handcrafted detail and very distinctive woodworking. Its authentic blue, yellow and red colouration makes this piece extremely desirable.
Damchiyas or Indian hope chests were originally designed and made to store a bride's dowry or wedding gifts. Often replicated and reproduced to look like this original piece. We've left the time-worn paintwork the way we found it in March. Our team of expert restorers in Rajasthan have simply washed, waxed and fitted a shelf into the main compartment.
