A grand example of colonial-era carpentry, this expansive low table was likely originally used as a Takhat or a low seating platform in a formal Indian residence. The long antique coffee table features a solid, single-plank (or tightly joined) teak top that has been scrubbed to a warm, natural honey tone, contrasting beautifully with the original dark, distressed paint on the base. The apron is embellished with a repeating carved "fan" or sunburst motif, a detail that hints at Art Deco influences merging with traditional Indian craftsmanship.
At 6 feet long, this Indian takhat table is the ultimate solution for large-scale seating arrangements. It is perfectly proportioned to sit in front of an extra-long sofa or a grand L-shaped sectional. Its "two-tone" finish—natural wood top and dark base—makes it a stylistic bridge: it pairs equally well with dark antique furniture and light, modern upholstery.
