{"product_id":"painted-triple-arch-from-gujarat","title":"Painted Triple Arch From Gujarat - 19th Century","description":"\u003cp\u003eThis striking 19th century painted triple archway from Gujarat is an exceptional example of traditional Indian architectural craftsmanship, richly decorated with layers of hand-painted floral and figurative artwork. The elegant scalloped arches are framed by slender carved columns, while the surviving painted surface reveals beautifully weathered tones of ochre, terracotta, faded blue and soft white. Delicate floral motifs, scrolling foliage and remnants of narrative decoration create a wonderfully atmospheric patina that speaks to the archway’s long architectural history.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSensitively cleaned and restored, the piece retains its authentic distressed character, with selected areas carefully repainted to stabilise historic wear while preserving the integrity of the original artwork. Designed as a substantial architectural element, the arch can be installed indoors or outdoors, although exposure to the elements will naturally soften the painted finish over time. Supplied in fifteen separate sections for ease of transportation and assembly, this remarkable piece offers dramatic decorative impact whether incorporated into an interior, garden structure or commercial setting.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOrigin:\u003c\/strong\u003e Gujarat, 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 Hardwood With Original Painted Decoration\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFeatures:\u003c\/strong\u003e Triple Scalloped Arch Design, Hand-Painted Floral and Figurative Artwork, Architectural Form, Modular Fifteen-Piece Construction\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCondition:\u003c\/strong\u003e Sensitively Restored With Distressed Original Surface and Areas of Historic Repainting Consistent With Age and Use\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDimensions:\u003c\/strong\u003e W414 x D27 x H227 cm\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"Indigo Antiques","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":57627712782719,"sku":"A03850","price":4950.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0217\/2522\/files\/Antique_Indian_Painted_Triple_Arch_A03850b.jpg?v=1779893866","url":"https:\/\/www.indigo-uk.com\/products\/painted-triple-arch-from-gujarat","provider":"Indigo Antiques","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
