{"product_id":"vintage-18th-century-door-1","title":"Gabled Turkish Door, 18th Century","description":"\u003cp\u003eA door of this size hung at the entrance to a house rather than anywhere inside it, and it was built to be read from the street as much as to close an opening. The decoration sits where the eye falls, across the upper panels and the head of the door, while the lower rails were left plainer because that is the part boots and carts reached.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThis one is topped by a gable rather than an arch, the two leaves rising to a peak at the centre, which is what makes it read as the front of a building rather than an opening in a wall. The carving covers both leaves in deep geometric registers, worked in bands that step inward toward the centre of each panel. The timber has bleached pale from years in the open, lighter than anything else in the range, so the relief reads as shadow rather than as colour.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eToday a piece at this scale is an architectural installation rather than a decorative one, mounted as a full wall or set as a divider in a space with the height to carry it. It is the kind of object a room gets designed around, not one added to a room already finished.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Kasa Petra","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46966660858017,"sku":"KP-0022","price":7000.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0740\/2346\/9217\/files\/Vintage18thCenturyDoor.jpg?v=1788485071","url":"https:\/\/kasapetra.com\/products\/vintage-18th-century-door-1","provider":"Kasa Petra","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
