Carved Teak Indian Dowry Chest Majus - 19thC

The traditional name for these Indian chests is 'majus' - they are found mostly in Rajasthan & Gujarat in North India. The front is beautifully chip carved in the traditional style with floral & geometrics chip carved motifs. It is adorned with horse brackets as is classical of the style making it a dramatic piece. 

Although the front is original, the sloping top, sides, and back have been replaced during this piece's lifetime which is reflected in the price. A small front door leads into a large interior storage area.


Traditionally the bride’s family had to offer gifts known as Dowry - to the bridegroom’s family if they were to find a good husband for their daughter. Dowry was normally Gold jewelry and Silk saris but sometimes brass cooking pots and other family treasures were exchanged.
