Cultural & Historical Context

Octagonal design has long been associated with sacred geometry in Indo-Islamic and temple traditions, symbolising balance and harmony. This piece reflects how early 20th-century Indian carpenters adapted traditional motifs into functional colonial-era furnishings, creating a dialogue between global design trends and indigenous woodworking heritage.

Styling Tip

Position as the focal point in a seating area—ideal alongside cane-backed chairs or mid-century sofas. Style with stacked art books, a sculptural ceramic planter, or brass candlesticks for layered charm. Perfectly suited to heritage, eclectic, or minimalist interiors.
