About This Event

An 18th-century, ivory-inlaid cabinet will be on display at Kingston Lacy from 30 July 2026. The cabinet was created by Indian craftspeople more than two centuries ago. Admission to the venue is required.

This 18th century, ivory-inlaid cabinet is an astonishing and magnificent work of art.

Created by Indian craftspeople more than two centuries ago, recent conservation work has brought hidden details to light.

Discover the leading conservation techniques used to stabilise the cabinet, and explore the cultural interrelationship between Europe and India at this period through items from other National Trust properties.

Also on display will be a dress created by students from Arts University Bournemouth and inspired by the cabinet.

No booking required.

Normal admission charges applies. National Trust members will need to show their membership cards at Visitor Reception and non-members will need to pay the admission price (from £23 per adult, £11.50 per child) or join the National Trust (this can be done on arrival at Kingston Lacy).
