Sharvani Vintage Teakwood Yali Bracket

Introduce a majestic touch of South Indian heritage to your space with the Sharvani Vintage Teakwood Yali Bracket, an exquisite and rare architectural remnant that embodies centuries of tradition and craftsmanship. Estimated to be around 80 years old, this piece was once part of a traditional South Indian structure, where such brackets adorned pillars and entrances of ancestral homes and temples, offering both structural support and spiritual symbolism.

Hand-carved from solid teakwood, known for its exceptional durability and rich grain, the bracket showcases the commanding figure of a Yali—a mythical beast believed to be more powerful than even lions or elephants. A revered guardian in Indian mythology, the Yali combines the features of multiple animals, symbolizing strength, protection, and prosperity. The intricate carving captures not just the physical might of the creature, but also the delicate artistry of the artisan who brought it to life decades ago.

The surface of the bracket bears the elegant wear and patina that only time can impart, revealing glimpses of its original finish through a beautifully aged texture. Every crack, chip, and worn edge enhances its vintage character and testifies to its long journey through time and culture.

Now mounted on a custom iron stand, this bracket has been thoughtfully repurposed for contemporary interiors while preserving its historical essence. Whether placed in a foyer, living room, library, or gallery setting, it commands attention as a sculptural statement piece, effortlessly merging the past with the present.

Perfect for collectors, designers, and cultural enthusiasts, the Sharvani Yali Bracket is more than just decor—it’s a relic of storytelling, devotion, and skilled craftsmanship that brings a timeless soul into any space.
