In the havelis (mansions) of Rajasthan, the temples of Karnataka, and the merchant houses of Gujarat, wooden brackets supported projecting balconies, overhanging eaves, and upper-story floor structures. The bracket transferred the vertical load from the projecting element above to the wall below, distributing the structural force across the contact area at the wall face. This is a problem of engineering. But in India's traditional domestic and religious architecture, no element that was visible from the street, the courtyard, or the interior was left without decoration. The structural bracket became the carved bracket, and the carved bracket became one of the most developed and most distinctive decorative forms in the entire Indian craft tradition.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eToday, carved wooden brackets from India's traditional craft communities are purchased as standalone decorative objects: shelf supports, wall-mounted display brackets, furniture ornaments, and pure decorative pieces displayed for their carved surface alone without any structural function.

These figures typically represent celestial beings (apsaras, gandharvas, yakshas) from the Hindu and Buddhist cosmological traditions. The figure is depicted in a posture of offering or support: arms raised, torso slightly forward, the whole body contributing to the visual illusion of weight-bearing.

Yali brackets appear extensively in South Indian temple architecture and in Karnataka's traditional wooden domestic architecture. The makara (a composite aquatic creature combining features of fish, crocodile, and elephant) appears in brackets associated with water architecture and temple gateways.
