Vintage Architectural Salvage Half Wood Pilaster Capital From India, D

Unique architectural salvaged vintage hand carved wood base recovered from a building that was torn down in India. This wood block has a carved ornamental face and sides and then extends to the back with no decoration. When it was used in a building only the decorative side was viewable.

The age of this unique piece is from 50 - 100+ years old.

The hand carved wood is indoor/outdoor suitable. There is plenty of flat space on the top of the piece to be a platform for knick knacks, plants, Pillar candles etc.. Would Also look great outside as a piece of garden art.

We found this ornamental wood plinth on a trip to the Indian desert state of Rajasthan where we work with people who specialize in recovering visually and historically interesting elements from homes and buildings that are torn down. These are actual recovered wood pieces from old homes. Each piece is a one of a kind treasure with it’s own story to tell.

All of the architectural salvage pieces have been weathered by the elements and from regular home use. Cracks and crags in the wood, chipped & varied color paint are all typical and part of the one of a kind charm in these pieces. If there are any cracks that affect the stability of the item and would prevent it from being a base for a plant or candle I’ll point it out in the listing.

You’ll see that I take photos from all 4 angles as well as top and bottom so you can get a solid idea as to the detailing and condition of the wood.

Most of the recovered wood comes from Rajasthan, Haryana and Gujarat.
The wood used varies and may be seesham, teak or mango.
