Tribal Totem "Koh Lipe": Guardian of African Traditions
This hand-carved wooden tribal totem embodies the spirit of West African cultures (Yoruba, Fang). Its powerful face, piercing eyes and crouching posture make it a sacred piece, inspired by the masks and statues used during protection or celebration rituals.
In tradition, such a totem pole is much more than a decorative object: it is a true spiritual guardian, a symbol of strength, which also embodies the bond with the ancestors. The seagrass details (arms and legs) add an authentic touch, reminiscent of the traditional adornments of warriors and shamans.
- Dimensions: Height 33cm x Width 21cm x Depth 8cm. Weight: 0.9Kg approximately.
- Material: hand-carved and patinated albizia wood, seagrass decoration on the arms and legs.
- Entirely handmade: each totem is unique, with variations in hue and texture that reinforce its raw and sacred character.
- Style: inspired by Yoruba (Nigeria/Benin) and Fang (Gabon/Cameroon), with geometric patterns typical of masks from these tribes.
Perfect for team challenges or adventure games, this totem will become the trophy to conquer during your team building sessions or group events with family or friends. He embodies the spirit of competition, resilience and the desire to surpass himself.
In your interior decoration, this totem will stand out as a centerpiece. Placed on a shelf, a desk or a console, it brings a tribal and mysterious energy, ideal for an ethnic, exotic or African-inspired atmosphere.
Halfway between a ritual object and a decorative sculpture, this totem pole is a powerful creation, intended for all those who love objects full of history, symbols and authenticity.
