Through exquisite artworks, glittering jewellery and weaponry discover how Ranjit Singh, one of the greatest figures in the history of India, established a hugely influential Sikh Empire at the beginning of the 19th century.

Through a stunning selection of over one hundred key objects from the Sikh Empire drawn from major private and public collections, explore how a voracious warrior-king named Ranjit Singh brought about a golden age in Punjab where trade boomed, the arts flourished and a formidable army was developed along European lines to keep any British, Afghan, Persian or Russian threat at bay. Backed by the tactical support of a guileful mother-in-law and a holy man with a penchant for warfare, Ranjit Singh would emerge as the region’s undisputed ‘maharaja’ or Great King at the beginning of the nineteenth century. His meteoric rise to power ushered in a short-lived but hugely influential Sikh Empire that would inextricably impact on the fortunes of Britain’s empire in the Indian subcontinent. This book, published to coincide with an exhibition at the Wallace Collection, features historic artworks, jewellery and weaponry from Ranjit Singh’s court, courtiers and family members. Also highlighted are objects intimately connected with his son, Maharaja Duleep Singh – the deposed boy-king turned country squire who was a favourite of Queen Victoria and father of the prominent suffragette Princess Sophia Duleep Singh. Richly illustrated, this catalogue also reveals the achievements of Ranjit Singh’s European and American Officials. Acknowledging Ranjit Singh’s remarkable feat of holding back the threat of a British invasion for four decades, these ‘Firangis’ would nickname their esteemed Sikh sovereign ‘The Napoleon of the East’.

Good quality, but hard
Color: Brown
The leather and metal seem to be of very good quality. My son bought this as his office/study chair. He is starting medical school and liked the professional look of this chair. He is 6’ tall and 200lb. There does not seem to be an issue with the chair rolling even with his weight. The chair is very ‘hard’ not that comfortable if you need to sit in it for long periods. Since my son needs to be staying awake to study, this will work for him as he won’t be able to get too comfortable and fall asleep.

Easy assembly and smooth movement
This chair has been a great addition to my home office. The assembly instructions are simple and easy to follow. The height adjusts smoothly, and the chair is very comfortable. I sit at my desk for about 9 hours a day, and this chair makes it easy to stay seated and work for long hours without discomfort. The cushioning and back support are solid. It spins well, and the wheels move smoothly. The build quality feels sturdy and reliable. Overall, a great value and a solid choice for anyone with a desk job. Highly recommend.

I am absolutely in love with this chair! The brown leather looks very premium and fits my home office aesthetic perfectly. It was easy to assemble and feels very sturdy. The lumbar support is just right for long working hours, and the rocking feature is a nice bonus. Definitely worth the price!
