    Large Vintage Wood Shrine

    Solid timber shrine, nicho or display box, beautifully finished on three sides and inside with carved pillars, solid wood back, stepped up footing and a 6-peak roof with finials.

    Most likely teak. Vintage in age, dating from the 1950-60s, southern India.

    This large and very graciously proportioned shrine can take  up to three tall statues because theuseable space extends right up into the vaulted roof and the sides are open. This means that it is also suitable for use as a general purpose shrine, for offerings and for the burning of incense.

    The plain and simple decoration of this shrine also means that it will not overshadow objects displayed inside. It is also suitable for venerable objects from different cultures because it does not immediately identify (for example) as Hindu or Buddhist.

    And if you would prefer not to use our niche as a shrine, it simply makes a beautiful display for any special object or objects, even plants.

    Measurements:

    Outside dimensions - height 47.5 cm to top of finials, depth 25 cm, width 38 cm

    Inside dimensions - height 30 cm to top of peaked roof, width 34 x 1depth 19 cm
