This breathtaking antique wood carving, measuring an impressive 80 inches long, is a powerful architectural fragment that speaks of ceremony and grandeur. Likely originating from Southeast Asia and dating to the late 19th century, this piece was originally a pediment or lintel crowning a sacred doorway or a ceremonial bed. The high-relief carving is a masterpiece of artistry, featuring a deep, intricate landscape of scrolling foliage and a central lotus bloom, a universal symbol of purity and enlightenment.
The natural, warm wood finish highlights the extraordinary three-dimensional quality of the carving, allowing light and shadow to play across its surface. In a modern home, this piece serves as a stunning architectural headboard above a queen or king-size bed, or as a commanding mantelpiece that brings the reverence and majesty of an ancient palace into your space.
