Ethnic Wooden Sculpture | Timor

HANDCRAFTED ETHNIC CARVED WOOD SCULPTURE - TIMOR (90CM)

This wooden sculpture is a primitive work of art brimming with magnetism and historical value, inspired by the rich tribal traditions of Timor Island in the Indonesian archipelago. Hand-carved from a solid block of wood, the piece features elongated lines, stylized facial representations, and geometric patterns reminiscent of ancestral totems used in rituals for protection and spiritual connection. The finish preserves the rustic texture and deep tones of the wood, highlighting the chisel marks and the authenticity of the handmade work.

Standing almost a meter tall, the sculpture has a striking vertical silhouette that enriches ethnic, rustic, or contemporary style decors. As it does not have its own base, this piece was designed to be displayed organically and informally, either leaning directly against a wall on sideboards and floors, or suspended as a vertical panel. It is the perfect choice for collectors of native art and enthusiasts of environments with strong personality and cultural depth.
