Upcycled Vintage Rajasthani Pidha Chair – Handcarved Teakwood with Folding Backrest & Charpoy Rope Seat | Circa 1910 Antique Low Floor Chair | Traditional Bridal Seat | Artisan Furniture from Rajasthan, India

Step into a world where craftsmanship meets heritage with this beautifully upcycled Pidha chair—an heirloom piece originating from early 20th-century Rajasthan. Traditionally used for low seating during cultural rituals and wedding ceremonies, this chair once formed part of a bride’s trousseau, symbolising comfort, grace, and familial legacy.

A Piece of Tradition Reimagined

Handcrafted from solid seasoned teakwood, the chair features a folding backrest intricately carved with Rajasthani floral and lattice motifs—echoes of jaali screens found in desert havelis and temples. The top crest is crowned with a stylised finial, and the turned front legs are accented with original metal sheathing, worn smooth by time and touch.

The seat is a masterpiece of charpoy weaving, using natural cotton rope in a complex herringbone pattern. Still tightly woven and usable, it pays homage to India’s rich tradition of rope furniture—functional, breathable, and beautifully resilient.

The chair's compact form and folding backrest reflect its original purpose: designed to be portable and space-saving for desert dwellers and camel caravans. Despite its age, the chair is remarkably sturdy, thanks to the durability of old-growth teak and the enduring strength of indigenous joinery.
