Ordinarily found in old officers messes during the time of the British Raj, this rosewood piece stands tall and carries out its service as a clothes stand rather elegantly. It folds entirely flat- an impressive feature for a design so monumental. Thus deeming it suitable for transport. This was an asset for travelling camps and companies as they would carry their “bandobast” wherever they were posted. Solid brass fittings and hinges permit this function while simultaneously adding to its charm and strength. The bottom compartment serves as a neat storage space for fresh linen or even boots, as it did back in the old days. This particular design was found in an officers mess in Meerut and earns its name from there. It makes an excellent addition to your safari camp collection.
