Bring architectural grandeur and cultural legacy into your home with this exceptional Antique Indian Jali Door, handcrafted from solid teakwood in the late 1800s.

This door showcases highly detailed Jali (pierced lattice) carving—an art form used for centuries in Mughal and Indo-Islamic architecture.

The hand-carved lattice panels are framed by carved floral borders and flanked by a solid structural frame, highlighting the precision and endurance of 19th-century craftsmanship.

The warm tones of the aged teak wood, along with its natural patina, create a tactile and visual richness, ideal for collectors, restorers, or anyone curating a heritage-infused interior.
