Antique Hand-Painted Wrought Iron Temple Panel with Diyas | Circa 1900s

Ramayana Storytelling Wall Art | Rajasthan, India

Bring centuries of devotion and artistry into your space with this exceptional hand-painted wrought iron temple panel from early 1900s Rajasthan. Crafted by master artisans, this museum-worthy piece unites architectural form, vibrant painting, and devotional function, offering a rare glimpse into India’s living temple traditions.

✦ A Living Canvas of Faith and Craftsmanship

At the heart of the panel lies a legendary Ramayana episode—Lord Hanuman’s heroic flight to retrieve the life-giving herb Sanjeevani. The storytelling unfolds in arched alcoves, each containing a finely painted figure, while the panel’s crown is adorned with elephants, peacocks, and Ganesh imagery. Together, these motifs symbolise divine protection, wisdom, and prosperity.

Delicately forged bells hang between alcoves, enhancing the panel’s ritual atmosphere. Painted in a rich palette of terracotta, mustard, emerald, cobalt, and gold using natural pigments, every surface speaks to the skill and devotion of its creators.

✦ Illuminated by 55 Diyas

A rare and defining feature of this piece is the inclusion of 55 individual diya holders. Once lit, the panel transforms into a glowing tableau, with shadows dancing across the figures and carvings. Traditionally used during rituals and festivals, this illumination element makes it both a devotional artefact and a spectacular statement for contemporary interiors.
