Bureau-cabinet

1725-1740 Indian Bureau-cabinet at the Museum of Fine Art, Boston - This piece looks absolutely stunning! It's teakwood and ebony with ivory inlays, and shows how European furniture styles were adapted to the resources in new colonial lands. Personally, I think it's British influence specifically: there has been an English presence in India since 1613, with the arrival of the East India Company.
