About the Item

The Indo-Portuguese cabinets from Goa and Diu represent a remarkable fusion of European and Indian craftsmanship from the 16th to 18th centuries. These exquisite cabinets were crafted primarily in Goa and Diu, key Portuguese colonies in India. They feature intricate inlays of ivory, tortoiseshell, mother-of-pearl, and in this case, silver, reflecting the blend of Portuguese and Indian artistic traditions. Often adorned with detailed carvings, religious motifs, and floral designs, these cabinets were used to store valuable items, symbolizing both utility and opulence. The unique stylistic elements, such as the incorporation of local Indian craftsmanship with European techniques, make these cabinets significant artifacts. Today, they are highly valued for their historical and artistic significance, showcasing the rich cultural exchange between Portugal and India.
