{"product_id":"rajasthani-welcome-wall-art-man","title":"Rajasthani Welcome Wall Art – Man in Namaste, 20x16 Jharokha","description":"\u003cp\u003eA Rajasthani man with his hands folded in namaste, greeting whoever walks in. The turban is red and green with gold banding, the moustache is enormous, the kurta is green — and all of it stands off the panel in raised relief rather than being painted flat. He sits inside a mustard jharokha arch on a deep blue field worked in fine white dots.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis is one half of a pair.

The painting follows: the gold banding on the turban, the dotted border of the kurta, the white dot work across the blue field. The dots are laid one at a time by hand, which is what gives the ground its slight irregularity.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eWhere it goes\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eEntryways, almost always. A pair either side of the front door is the traditional arrangement and the one in the photographs. Also used flanking a mandir, at the top of a staircase, or in a restaurant or shop entrance where the greeting does actual work.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eHanging it\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFittings are on the back. At 1.73 kg use a screw into a drywall anchor. If you are hanging the pair, measure the gap first — they look best with the same clearance either side of the door frame, and the panels are 16 inches wide. Screws and wall anchors are not supplied.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eCare\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDust with a dry, soft brush, working around the raised turban and hands. Do not spray liquid at the surface.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eFrequently asked questions\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDo I have to buy the pair?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\nNo, they are sold separately and either works alone. But they were designed as a pair and the photographs of the two together are the honest answer to how they look best.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eIs the figure raised or printed?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\nRaised.
