This exquisite 14th-century Jain altar fragment, crafted from marble, features Tirthankara Chandraprabha at its center, a significant figure in Jainism symbolized by the crescent moon depicted on his chest. The altar's intricate design showcases various Jain statues and elephants, each emphasizing the spiritual purity and tradition surrounding the 24 Tirthankaras. Originating from India, this piece was obtained during the demolition of an ancient temple in Rajasthan, a region noted for its rich cultural heritage and architectural wonders related to Jainism. The artistry reflects the profound reverence for spiritual teachings that has characterized Jain culture for centuries. The fragment measures 104 cm in height, 96 cm in width, and 27 cm in depth, making it a striking addition to any collection. Weighing 270 kg, this remarkable work does not stand independently but can be fitted with a custom stand upon request. An external appraisal report is available, further attesting to its historical and artistic significance. This altar fragment serves not only as a spiritual artifact but also as a testament to the enduring legacy of Jain artistry and devotion.
