An Indian wooden Totem of 150cm Hyper Realistic!

Dimensions: height 150cm x width 90cm (including wings) x depth about 23cm / Base: about 23x23cm. Detachable wings for easy transport. Material: exotic wood from responsible sectors. Artisanal creation: slight differences in appearance are possible compared to the model photographed.

Also called "monumental pole" or "totem pole", this Native American totem is inspired by those made by the indigenous peoples of the northwest coast of the United States.

This rare and imposing piece, available in limited edition, has been entirely handcrafted by our partner craftsman. Many hours of work (and a lot of talent) are required to sculpt a totem of this size and all the details it entails!

Can I install this totem pole outdoors?

This totem pole is an object intended for interior decoration. But by respecting a few precautions, it is possible to expose it outdoors:

First of all, the wood must be protected from moisture. To do this, completely cover the totem with water-repellent product, such as a high-protection lacquer (product available in all DIY stores). Do not forget the underside of the totem otherwise water will infiltrate it by capillarity. Renew this protection every 2 to 3 years if your totem pole is often exposed to rain.
It must also be protected from the wind to prevent it from falling and breaking. One solution is to anchor it to the ground by screwing its base into concrete for example. In any case, prefer a place with little exposure to the wind.

What is the meaning of the animals depicted on Indian totems?

The animals depicted on the Native American totem poles are still part of the natural environment of the people who erected the monument. Native Americans have taken great inspiration from the animals around them to compose their traditional songs and dances, but also their totem poles.

When an animal is depicted on a totem pole, it is because it is the incarnation of a deity, because it symbolizes an important virtue of the community, or to intimidate enemies.

On this totem pole, we can clearly distinguish the head and wings of an eagle, symbol of authority, wisdom and courage.

There is also a wolf that eats a fish. The wolf symbolizes the link with the afterlife and can therefore be interpreted as a tribute to the ancients. The fact that he eats a fish is probably a representation of fishing, the main resource of the tribe.
