Large Scratchwork Lacquer Pot From Chiniot, Punjab - Late 19th Century

An excellent and large example of an antique Indian scratchwork lacquer pot. It is a true work of art and this colourful lacquer box is an excellent collector's piece. This pot is from Chiniot, in the Punjab and the technique used is known as scratchwork. This piece is over 120 years old and dates from the late 19th century. 

Lacquer boxes are commonly used in Rajasthan and Gujarat for storing jewellery or bindi (the red powder that Indian ladies apply to the forehead).

Lacquering is done by the craftsman on a hand-powered lathe. The wooden pot is spun and a lac stick is pressed against the pot. As the pot spins friction softens the lac which coats the surface of the wood. Quite intricate designs can be created by the craftsman using different techniques.

Good quality lacquer pots are becoming increasingly difficult to find.
