Carved Teak Panel, Burma
Gracefully carved foliage surrounding a center lotus roundel give this 20th century Burmese teak panel a light and airy look. Carved for use as an architectural panel, probably for a monastery or temple, the wood is the natural warm, reddish color of Burmese teak and is free of any sort of lacquer or finish. Because the untreated color has not faded from exposure to the sun and the piece is in nearly perfect condition, it suggests that the piece never reached its intended architectural destination and perhaps was in storage instead. This square panel is carved from a single piece of wood. Dimensions: height and width 29" (74 cm), depth 1-1/2" (6 cm).
