✔ Architectural origin

An impressive and highly decorative carved hardwood panel incorporating a hand-worked iron grille, likely originally part of a window, screen, or architectural feature.

Measuring an imposing 114 cm in height, this is a heavy and substantial piece with real presence. The hardwood frame is carved with stylised animal motifs in a repeating frieze, complemented by a robust iron grille featuring hand-cut animal silhouettes and hanging decorative elements.

The combination of carved wood and forged iron suggests traditional craftsmanship, and the overall construction indicates it was originally designed for both functional and decorative use.

The style draws on Indian and African folk art influences, and the piece is likely of 20th century origin, possibly Indian (Rajasthan or Gujarat), though exact attribution remains uncertain.

Today, it makes an exceptional piece of statement wall art—ideal for interiors with rustic, bohemian, industrial, or globally inspired styling.

A rare and characterful item with strong visual impact.
