Collection of Ancient Statues from Timor – Indonesia

This collection brings together several ancient statues originating from Timor, Indonesia, hand-carved from antique wood and presented on a base.

These protective tribal figures were traditionally placed in homes to ward off evil spirits, protect inhabitants, and watch over the household. Their simple, minimalist, and raw style highlights the symbolic power of these ancient objects.

Each statue has a unique, time-worn patina, as well as details specific to each piece: clean faces, engraved patterns, cowrie shell inlays, or beaded eyes depending on the model.

Both decorative and rich in history, these sculptures bring an authentic and spiritual presence to a bohemian, ethnic, wabi-sabi interior, or to a collection of ancient tribal art.
