Antique Indian Studded Cabinet – Carved Teak & Iron, Rajasthan

A striking antique Indian cabinet crafted from solid teak and fitted with heavily studded doors, sourced from Rajasthan. Built using original architectural elements, this is a bold and highly decorative piece with strong presence and authenticity.

The front is defined by a grid of deeply framed panels, each set with hand-forged iron studs, creating a rich, textured surface. The original iron ring handles and central locking bar remain in place, adding both function and character. The cabinet is framed by carved uprights and topped with a heavily detailed cornice, giving it a strong architectural form.

The outer structure provides stability and usability, allowing the original doors to be used as a practical storage cabinet while retaining their historic integrity.

The surface displays a natural aged patina, with wear, tonal variation, and historic marks that enhance its authenticity and depth.

Pieces of this scale and detail are increasingly difficult to source, particularly those incorporating original studded doors.

A powerful statement piece—ideal for interior designers, period interiors, or as a focal point in contemporary spaces.
