Indian carved camphor wood sewing boxes were particularly common during the 19th century, especially during the British colonial period in India. This era saw a rise in the production of decorative wooden items, including sewing boxes, which were often intricately carved and served both functional and aesthetic purposes. The use of camphor wood was favored for its durability and pleasant aroma, making these boxes popular among both locals and British colonizers. The craftsmanship of these items reflects the rich artistic traditions of India during that time.
