High-ranking British officers enjoyed a lifestyle "under canvas" that
allowed the transportation of luxuriously appointed furnishings, designed to
travel well and serve their owners in the style to which they were
accustomed. Despite their substantial and stylish appearance, the
pieces were cleverly designed to quickly break down and re-assemble without
the use of nails or tools, in time for afternoon tea or an evening "encamp".
The solid functionality of these clever pieces lends itself well to modern
interiors. Classic proportions and elegant, distressed finishes add a
lived-in, comfortable statement of character that will express the owner's
reference to history and confidence in good style.
