18th century Antique wooden Indian temple panel from India
Located in DEVENTER, NL
Step into the sacred legacy of Indian temple artistry with this Antique wooden Indian temple panel, a rare 18th-century relic originating from a historic Temple Chariot (Rath) in India. Measuring 51.3 cm high, 25.1 cm wide, and 13.4 cm deep, this intricately carved wooden panel once adorned a ceremonial chariot used in grand religious processions, embodying the spiritual fervor and architectural grandeur of Hindu traditions. Crafted by skilled artisans, the panel showcases elaborate depictions of deities, mythological scenes, or floral motifs, symbols of divine protection and cosmic order central to temple rituals. Weighing 6.74 kgs, its robust yet finely detailed construction reflects the durability required for chariots that traversed festival routes, carrying sacred idols amid vibrant celebrations. The rich patina and aged wood grain bear witness to centuries of devotion, while the panel’s provenance—documented in the last two photos of its original chariot—adds unparalleled historical authenticity. Created during an era of flourishing temple art under royal patronage, this piece exemplifies the fusion of devotional craftsmanship and functional sacred art, offering a tangible link to India’s spiritual and cultural heritage. Ideal for collectors of Asian religious artifacts, historians, or interior design connoisseurs, this 18th-century temple panel transcends mere decoration, serving as a narrative artifact of India’s temple...
