A Mughal ivory inlaid coromandel and rosewood cabinet, Gujarat or Sindh, late 17th century, 69cm high, 84cm wide, 56cm deep. Towards the close of the seventeenth century two-door cabinets of this type replaced portable fall-front cabinets as the leading form produced by furniture-making workshops in western India. Their configuration and dimensions reflect changes in Europe in the design and use of cabinets, which were increasingly devised as showpieces, often richly decorated and mounted on stands in drawing rooms. The decoration of the exterior of this cabinet reflects the high Mughal style of setting rows of flowering plants in alternating patterns against a plain ground. This enchanting device is characteristic of the reign of Shah Jahan and may be found adorning buildings erected by the emperor, such as the Saman Burj, Agra Fort (c. 1637).
