Lot Details & Additional Photographs
Teak, British Colonial, swing-out arms serving as footrests, reclined seat, likely original cane, carved rear legs and turned front legs on bun feet, one back stretcher.

32 x 26.5 x 41 in.

Also known as the “Bombay Fornicator” chair, a tongue-in-cheek Anglo-Indian term referencing the splayed footrests and their positioning of the sitter.

Later cane with some broken straws and evidence of age; minor chips and use wear as expected; sturdy frame construction.
