Chip Carved Indian 'Manjus' Dowry Chest From Rajasthan - 19thC Scarf one of the owners ofThe detailed chip carving on this manjus is of exceptional quality and unusually, it has been carved on both the front and the sides. Originally a chest like this would have been given as a dowry gift. Three doors open to reveal a large internal storage area. The whole chest is supported by beautifully carved classic Mughal shaped legs. Manjus chests usually have far longer legs making this piece unusually low and more suitable for use as an AV unit.
