Not antique, but very beautiful.</p><p><br /></p><p>The Dutch influence is also found in India and Sri Lanka. And Anglo-Indian is often the coverall term for all Euro-Indian styles.</p><p>The Dutch VOC owned Coromandel in India between 1610 and 1798 (also a few other parts of India). Coromandel was known for exquiste woods and quality furniture making. Coromandel became British in 1825, when the colonial furniture style was already established.</p><p><br /></p><p>During the VOC period Indian and Sri Lankan furniture makers were also shipped to Java, Indonesia, some as slaves, others as free men. As a result there is some Indian/Sri Lankan influence in Javanese colonial furniture.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
