About the Item

A collection of four hand-carved wooden sculptures from West Africa, each piece unique in its form and expression. Crafted with skill and tradition, the figures display fine detailing and a rich, deep patina that has developed beautifully over time, reflecting both age and use. These sculptures are not only objects of cultural artistry but also versatile decorative pieces that bring character and authenticity into a contemporary home. Their natural materials and sculptural qualities create a compelling contrast against clean, modern lines, while also blending seamlessly into interiors that embrace Wabi Sabi aesthetics, Bohemian eclecticism, or the bold ornamentation of Art Deco-inspired settings. Highest sculpture is 34 cm and the lowest 22 cm.
