The Memory of Motion
Vintage Carved Wooden Architectural Bracket
About the Product
A hand-carved wooden bracket, once one of the supports beneath a balcony, an eave or an upper floor. Rajasthani havelis are known for carving like this, where even the working parts of a house were given shape. Traces of blue paint remain across the wood, softened along with the rest of its surface.
Mounted upright on a metal stand, it now sits on a console or shelf as a sculpture: a piece of a building, brought into a room.
Price mentioned is per product.
Each piece is one of a kind. Size, colour and markings vary from piece to piece. Photographs are close, but the piece may look slightly different in person and from different angles. Cracks, joints, worn paint and variations in patina are part of the original piece and add to the beauty of it.
About the Chapter
From The Memory of Motion, Origin & Form's first collection.
This piece has already made a journey. Long before it reached you, it moved: carried, wheeled, passed from hand to hand. It carries decades in its grain and the wear of the roads behind it.
You're not buying an object. You're buying the moment it stopped moving.
