DE-COR | Globally Inspired
An Indian architectural lintel is a horizontal beam usually made from thick wood placed over doors or windows in traditional Indian architecture. It serves as a support for the structure above and also as a decorative element, often carved with intricate designs, motifs, and sculptures. The lintel is a common feature in Hindu and Buddhist temples, palaces, and other monumental buildings from ancient to medieval times in India.
This antique Indian lintel features a finely carved Ganesha figure inside a window niche in the center, with prominent scrolled works around it. Carving has a washed light brown teak finish with remnants of original painted color in green and white hues.
