Cultural and Historical Context
The octagonal form holds deep roots in Indo-Islamic architecture, symbolising harmony and cosmic balance. In colonial India, artisans adapted this sacred geometry into furniture design, merging indigenous woodworking traditions with British influences. This table reflects that dialogue, where heritage craft meets global design sensibility.
