Description: Solid wood INDIAN TEMPLE CARVING 1850 soldier HORSE lion ARCHITECTURAL PANEL Choice Indian Wood Temple carving circa 1850, Architectural panel, Soldier on horse, hunting a lion. Carved from a single piece of wood. Stands on it own approximately 10 ¾ x 7 ¼ x 2 5/8 inches depth It weighs 4 ¼ lbs. Although, I had it against a wall, since a bump against a table might topple it over. I purchased it in 1989 from Ancient World Arts, Ltd., 50 West 76th St., New York, NY 10023. Auction 789B. Invoice: Nov. 1, 1989. The lot includes the carving, catalogue and COA. The invoice is not included. It is highly suggested moisturizing the wood with oil every year or so. You don’t have to buy some expensive furniture/wood oil. Check the internet and youtube as there are many oils that are appropriate that you may already have in your kitchen. Some old oil residue is present in various crevasses from my 33+ years worth of earlier applications. There are cracks, splits in the wood that were present when I purchased it in 1989 as I suspect it wasn’t properly maintained before I owned it. It is solid, no possibility of the wood breaking apart/off during your ownership or beyond—if properly cared for. No repairs have ever been done nor needs to be.
