Indian? Thai? meditation chair?

Found this at an estate sale in Virginia. Any Asian furniture experts? Carvings look too clean and crisp for it to be all that old, maybe made for the tourist trade?

 

Welcome to the forum, Nicole.
Right now it doesn't look old or new, no pictures.
This will help:

It is very nice, Nicole.
Could you take more pictures? Back, sides, corners, underneath.
And how big is the compartment underneath the lid?

 

It is a storage bench or settle, btw, and you're right, many were and are made in India. We do need to see details to give an estimate of the age and origin.

 

A few details:
seat height-17"
total height-32"
width-33"
depth-19" (outside)

storage compartment is the entire base, hinge is wooden dowel

Here are the pics, room has a LOT of sunlight right now, sorry for the bit of over exposure

 

Thank you, that helps. And you managed to get them in the thread.
I would say India. It has been antiqued, given an antique finish. It is very nice though, a very attractive piece.

 

Hi Nicole and welcome. When I first saw it I thought Indonesian, but AJ is right it is Indian. Recently made, decorated to look aged but quite nice and practical as a side table or display unit perhaps.
