Figurines that tell a story

Women are pretty common figurines when it comes to tribal art. The Devon Lady Statue in our collection is one of the most sought after tribal figurines. It is a symbol of warmth, womanhood and power. It is the perfect embodiment of capturing an artist's emotion into its sculpture. It can be an excellent addition to your living room. Place it close to your accent wall and it becomes a point of discussion with your guests.

You can then entice them with your taste while encouraging them as well to explore tribal artistry at its finest at Artisans Rose

Choosing Dhokra means choosing sustainability and culture for your home

Dhokra art is one of the oldest art forms in India. It dates back almost 4000 years and is prevalent in areas like Chhattisgarh, Orissa, West Bengal and Jharkhand. Artisans make molds made out of wax of the figurine they want to create. They then pour brass within the mould and let it set for ideal shape.

Dhokra is a dying art form where the entire family of a tribal village is involved. This itself is a good enough reason to add such collectibles to your home. Men, women and children too participate in creating these decor items. The process is pretty long and requires skill as intricacy is a key characteristic of Dhokra art. Dhokra art mainly encircles around human and animal figurines. You can consider adding our Dhokra Madin Silwali if you want to add a feminine touch and energy to your home.

Alternatively, if you are more interested in animals and like adding animal figurines, you can go for the Dhokra Nandi. It can be an excellent addition if you are looking for peace and serenity. It is also a great addition if you are devotional and spiritual.

Dhokra articles are an excellent addition aestheticswise but it is also sustainable. Dhokra art is brass based and it will last for years to come. It also helps the local artisans give livelihood opportunities why you also get to keep a collectible that is one of a kind.

Tribal woodwork collectibles for your modern home

Woodwork in India isn't just decor, it is a significant part of history and culture. Artisans invest days and sometimes months chiseling wood and carving wood by hand. These sculptures often tell a story of life, culture and beliefs.

If you are planning on adding a tribal artifact made of woodwork, you should consider our Renato Wooden Bracket on Stand. Carved out of reclaimed wood, is a piece that has captured the architectural fragments of our nation.

This piece is hand carved and captures a figurine inspired from temple architecture. It preserves a beautiful story of the past for you to tell. Add this to your modern living space to add an element of rustic charm. Adding this artifact will also create a sense of warmth to your room.

And if you appreciate figurines more, our Qirin Tribal Statue will go wonderfully with the rest of your decor.
