Antique Rajasthani Teak Wood Door with Brass Studs | Circa Early 1900s Haveli Door

Authentic Shekhawati Architectural Masterpiece in Solid Teak with Brass Detailing

Step Into Rajasthan’s Royal Heritage

This early 1900s antique teak door from Rajasthan’s Shekhawati region is a genuine heirloom of Indian architecture. Known for its ornate havelis and grand facades, Shekhawati produced some of India’s most intricate wooden doors, and this piece reflects that tradition through its craftsmanship, symmetry, and presence.

Handmade from aged solid teak and decorated with a grid of brass studs, it captures the perfect balance of artistry and strength that defines traditional Rajasthani design. This is a timeless architectural statement that combines beauty, history, and cultural significance.

Craftsmanship and Cultural Legacy

Each panel was hand-joined using traditional woodworking techniques passed down through generations. The brass bosses, arranged in perfect geometric balance, were believed to offer both protection and prosperity to the home they guarded.

The original iron ring handles, bolt mechanism, and chain lock remain intact. Above them, a finely carved lattice lintel showcases the artistry typical of Shekhawati’s architectural style. The teak has developed a naturally aged patina that reveals its enduring character and century-old story.
