Description

SRI LANKA / INDONESIE / COROMANDEL

Rare ebony child's armchair. Caned seat and twisted uprights, finely carved with flowers. Probably Ceylon, 17th century, H +-64cm. Note: According to Jan Veenendaal, the carved floral decoration on this type of ebony furniture was inspired by Dutch floral engravings. For example, Den Blomhof by Crispijn de Passe de Jonge (first edition 1614). He also notes that the flowers are inspired by the Dutch ear-lobed silverware (kwab) of the Van Vianen brothers, which became very popular in Holland around 1660.
