Midnight Blue Hexagon inlay cupboard

The organic honeycomb geometry on this inlaid dresser is yet another popular pattern in our bone inlay range. All hand carved and laid out with delicate precision the hexagons unfold over the entire surface of this Indian cupboard. The tradition of inlaying furniture dates back to the early Mogul era, where Ivory inlaid furniture adorned the palaces of Jodhpur and Udaipur. Early examples of elephant chairs dating back to the 1600s, inlaid with ivory, are on display in the City Palace in Udaipur. The ethical descendent of this tradition is Rajasthani bone inlay, as all camel bone is derived from animals that die of natural causes.The mosaic of bone pieces that adorn this Oriental cupboard are laid out with mathematical elegance and are a testament to the skill of the local craftsmen.
