{"product_id":"antique-indian-tribal-carved-cedar-panel","title":"Tribal Carved Panel From Kullu - 19th Century","description":"\u003cp\u003eThis remarkable 19th century cedar panel from the Kullu Valley in Himachal Pradesh is a powerful example of Himalayan tribal woodcarving. Richly worked by hand, the panel features intricate floral and foliate motifs framing a central arched scene of an armed rider mounted on a tiger. On the left a stylised endless knot can be seen. This bold and expressive carving is an evocative and symbolic composition rooted in local folklore and tradition with each element shaped through skilled hand tools, leaving behind a wonderfully textured surface.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eCarved from cedar, a timber prized in the Himalayan regions for its durability and resistance to insects, the panel has developed a deep, aged patina over time. Likely once part of a larger architectural element—such as a temple, doorway, or domestic shrine—it now serves as a striking decorative wall piece. Supplied with hangers to the rear, it is ready to display and brings both history and craftsmanship into a space.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOrigin:\u003c\/strong\u003e Kullu Valley, Himachal Pradesh, India\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDate:\u003c\/strong\u003e 19th Century\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaterial:\u003c\/strong\u003e Cedar wood\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFeatures:\u003c\/strong\u003e Deep hand-carved floral motifs, central rider on tiger scene, architectural fragment, supplied with rear hangers\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCondition:\u003c\/strong\u003e Good antique condition with age-related wear, splits, and surface erosion consistent with age and use\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDimensions:\u003c\/strong\u003e W167 x D3 x H54 cm\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"Indigo Antiques","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":56993671053695,"sku":"A03961","price":695.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0217\/2522\/files\/Antique_Indian_Tribal_Carved_Cedar_Panel_From_Kullu.jpg?v=1774456401","url":"https:\/\/www.indigo-uk.com\/products\/antique-indian-tribal-carved-cedar-panel","provider":"Indigo Antiques","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
