Lintel Panel From Andhra Pradesh - 19th Century
This finely hand carved teak lintel was salvaged from a historic building in Andhra Pradesh and dates to the 19th century. Designed to sit above a doorway as a protective architectural element, it carries the graceful vocabulary of South Indian temple and domestic carving. At its centre is a blossoming lotus padma, flanked by a pair of stylised peacocks, symbols of beauty, renewal, and auspiciousness. Their long sweeping forms merge into scrolling foliage, all enriched by a naturally weathered surface that speaks to generations of use.
As a reclaimed architectural fragment, this piece offers exceptional decorative value. Its long arched shape is ideal for display above a fireplace, over a doorway, or simply as sculptural wall art. The warm teak tones and hand carved detailing bring depth and character to both contemporary and traditional interiors.
