Some examples of beam heads in Solsona, Central Catalonia.
Many old houses use wooden beams to make the ceilings, and the end of these beams are in the exterior of the house. If wooden beams didn't have any protection in their ends, when they get wet from rain they could slowly rot. These ones, sculpted in the shape of human heads, can be found in other towns as well, but there are many of them in Solsona. Each one is unique, different from all the others.
The oldest beam heads in Solsona were placed in the Renaissance and the newest ones in the 20th century.

A ranma, the horizontal wooden transom above interior partitions, is often mounted on a wall by Westerners who admire its hand-carved design... a handwoven, antique obi is swagged on a bamboo rod.
