Description
Hand-carved Wood Spirit House Shrine w/ Matching Stand. A stunning example of the Southeast Asian tradition of the "spirit house" or shrine to a place's protective spirits, exquisitely aged, with heavy patina of chipped green paint. Uncommonly paired with a matching stand with equally intricate carved wood, possibly teak, bringing the shrine to table height with integral display. Origin unknown, though architectural style of tiered roof with flamed flanges suggests Thai influence.
Dimensions are 43.25 in h x 18 in w x 19.5 in d. Spirit house alone is 14 in h; base is 29.25 in h. Condition is fair, with significant chipping of paint and some small breaks to wood details, but structurally sound. Please call or email for a detailed condition report.
