Stunning 3' Handcarved Lotus Panel


The three dimensional Handcarved Lotus Panel is a marvel of intricacy & is a highly prized & valued possession within Thai society.

The lotus flower itself is a very important symbol within the Buddhist religion as it symbolizes prosperity and fertility. These Handcarved Lotus Panels are so prized that Thai families typically make them the centerpiece of a room.

Each Lotus Panel created by hill tribe craftsmen in Northern Thailand is the result of countless hours meticulously shaping, sanding and finishing each of the intricate lotus flower motif designs.

These wonders of wood are all completely crafted by hand, the smaller Lotus Panels can take a couple of weeks to complete, the larger panels EACH take between 3-6 months !!.

For ease of making, shipping & mounting each Lotus Panel is cut into 30cm(12") wide sections that all fit together perfectly when assembled.

These exquisitely detailed carvings help pay for new community buildings & other projects within the remote mountain villages of the far north of Thailand, each piece is completely unique, variations in wood color and carving will occur, which only go to enhance the beauty of the panels.
