This impressive table is an example of the refinement found in the local courts of northern India during the Raj period. The European forms are retained and embellished with local coats of arms and motifs such as the felines heads, the abundant and intricate foliate scrollwork and the split palmettes. This table find echoes in a sumptuous pair of royal parcel-gilt silver thrones made in Benares for the principality of Panna between 1850 and 1870 which sold at Christies South Kensington, 12 June 2014, lot 199.
