Wood carving gallery

Woodcarving is one of the very ancient craft of India. Wood is widely used for construction and embellishment of palaces, temples and houses, as it is easily available and readily tractable material. Because of its plasticity and smooth texture it afforded possibilities to the wood carver to devise various artistic forms and designs, which were from time to time elaborated and refined under the impact of various styles. Ornate and beautifully carved doors, window-frames, carved panels, brackets, pillars, masks  etc are on display
