Rare circa 1880 Burmese Solid Hardwood Hand Carved Floral Chair High Back Ornate

A truly stunning piece, this type of furniture is just about as ornate as you will see anywhere in the world, intricately hand carved from head to toe, to have a chair of this nature made today would costs tens of thousands

This is a good early one, you can see the hand saw marks on the inside of the frame, Rosewood is a very hard wood so it makes for great highly detailed pieces

The chair has been restored to include having the frame secured, its then been cleaned waxed and polished. I wouldn’t recommend using it as an actual chair, the back feels way to high for that
