This sacred home shrine comes from Rajasthan. Typically, shrines like this would have graced a high caste Brahmin home, and been the focal point of daily puja, a prayer ritual performed to honour and worship one or more deities.
This particular example is finished in a distressed powder blue over dark burgundy underpainting from a previous incarnation. The auspicious Hindu and Buddhist symbol of Law, the swastika, together with the Buddha's feet decorate the front platform. IMAGES 4 & 5. The roof and side panels are decorated with Mughal arched detailing.
Dates to the early 20th century, quite possibly earlier. In a contemporary 21st century, you might consider using it to display artefacts of importance to you. SEE LAST TWO IMAGES FOR EXAMPLES OF SIMILAR.
