Antique Teal & Verdigris Painted Indian Teak Jali Door Garden Gate Pair – 19th Century Gujarat

Introduce a truly unique piece of Indian architectural heritage to your home or garden with this Antique Teal & Verdigris Painted Teak Jali Door Garden Gate Pair, salvaged from a historic building in Gujarat State. Dating to the 19th century, these unusually tall doors (116 x 9 x 185 cm / 45.7 x 3.5 x 72.8 inches) are a rare find, featuring their original teal, verdigris, and muted blue paintwork, beautifully distressed over time. The intricate black iron jali (lattice) panels and robust original iron fittings—including heavy-duty locks and bolts—add both security and decorative appeal.

The doors display a fabulous patina, with layers of teal, blue, and earthy brown, and carry authentic marks, repairs, and wear from generations of use. Their fine arched tops and see-through jali design allowed air to circulate while protecting the home, making them both functional and strikingly beautiful. These doors are ready to hang and will make a dramatic feature as:

• Grand entrances for walled gardens, patios, or terraces

• Statement interior doors or feature wall panels

• Decorative shutters or room dividers

• Unique props for film, theatre, or boutique hotels

Each pair is personally sourced by a member of Jardinopia in Rajasthan, India, ensuring genuine provenance and one-of-a-kind character. To maintain their beauty, simply apply a coat of linseed oil annually and use a clear lacquer to protect the original paint.
