Antique Indian hanging cradle in carved wood, 19th / early 20th century.

An ancient traditional Indian cradle made of solid wood, featuring a series of turned wooden balusters and posts topped with carved finials. The structure has 4 original metal rings that once allowed the cradle to be suspended from chains or ropes. This handcrafted piece has a beautiful patina of time and an authentic character. Today, it can be repurposed as a decorative element: a small occasional bench, a display for throws or cushions, or even an indoor planter. Sturdy, healthy wood.
