{"product_id":"vintage-blue-painted-shelf-1","title":"Blue Painted Indian Slatted Shelf - Ca 1930","description":"\u003cp\u003eThis Anglo-Indian teak shelving unit dates from the late Raj period, circa 1940s, and is a wonderfully characterful example of practical colonial furniture. Crafted from solid teak, it retains a rich surface of original sky blue paint, now beautifully weathered and softly worn through years of use. Areas of natural paint loss reveal the warm tones of the teak beneath, creating a layered, timeworn patina that cannot be replicated.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe design is simple and functional, with four slatted shelves framed by clean, straight lines and open sides. The upper gallery rail adds both stability and subtle architectural detail, while the slatted construction allows light and air to circulate — ideal for books, linens, ceramics or decorative objects. Approaching a century in age, the shelf remains reassuringly sturdy and practical, a testament to the durability of teak and traditional craftsmanship. Its relaxed, faded blue finish makes it particularly suited to coastal, country house or eclectic interiors.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOrigin:\u003c\/strong\u003e Anglo-Indian\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDate:\u003c\/strong\u003e Circa 1940s\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaterials:\u003c\/strong\u003e Solid teak with original blue painted finish\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFeatures:\u003c\/strong\u003e Four slatted shelves, upper gallery rail, open sides, original distressed paint surface\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCondition:\u003c\/strong\u003e Good antique condition with age-related wear and paint loss consistent with use\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDimensions:\u003c\/strong\u003e W81 x D28 x H151 cm\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"BinderKing","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":53550845034805,"sku":"A03199","price":343.04,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1012\/5243\/2181\/files\/Vintage_Blue_Painted_Indian_Slatted_Teak_Shelf.jpg?v=1789232062","url":"https:\/\/binderking.shop\/products\/vintage-blue-painted-shelf-1","provider":"BinderKing","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
