Bring a piece of Indian architectural history to your home or garden with this rare antique Jali door pair, salvaged from a historic building in Gujarat State. Crafted from solid teak and finished in an exquisite blend of verdigris green and teal blue, these doors display layers of original paint, highlighted by a timeworn patina and robust iron bars, bolts, and locks.
The openwork ‘Jali’ design (meaning ‘see-through’ in Hindi) allowed for air circulation and security, making them ideal for use as grand garden gates, patio entrances, or dramatic feature walls in both traditional and modern settings. The original heavy-duty iron fittings remain intact, reflecting their historic role as the first line of defence in prominent Indian homes. These doors are ready to hang and suitable for outdoor use in the UK with annual linseed oil and optional clear lacquer to preserve their unique colour.
