Nepali Traditional Wooden Aankhi Jhyal – Handcrafted Window (49cmx27.5cm)

The Nepali Traditional Wooden Aankhi Jhyal (window) is one of the most iconic symbols of Newari art and architecture, reflecting Nepal’s rich cultural and spiritual heritage. Crafted by skilled artisans using time-honored woodcarving techniques, this window embodies centuries of craftsmanship from the Kathmandu Valley.

Each Aankhi Jhyal features detailed latticework and symbolic carvings, representing protection, insight, and openness — allowing light and air to pass while maintaining privacy. Historically, such windows adorned temples, palaces, and traditional Newari homes in Bhaktapur, Patan, and Kathmandu, serving both functional and artistic purposes.

Made from premium hardwood, the window’s design captures the essence of Nepali identity and artistic legacy. Whether used as wall décor, a centerpiece, or a meaningful gift, this handcrafted Aankhi Jhyal adds warmth, depth, and authenticity to any setting.
