Nanakshahi bricks

[5] This variety of brick tiles were of moderate dimensions and could be used for reinforcing lime concretes in the structural walls and other thick components.

In the present-day, the bricks are sometimes used to give a "historical" look to settings, such as when the surrounding of the Golden Temple complex was heavily renovated in the 2010s.

[5] More often than not, the structures on which they were used, especially the Sikh temples (Gurudwaras),[7] were a combination of two systems: trabeated and post-and-lintel, or based on arches.

The surfaces were treated with lime or gypsum plaster which was molded into cornices, pilasters, and other structural as well as non-structural embellishments.

[6] Due to a lack of understanding, sometimes contemporary writers confuse the Lakhuri bricks with other similar but distinct regional variants.
