Collecting tribal art is my passion, food for the soul, I have been collecting tribal art and antiques for well over 25 years, my collecting trips have taken me to many distant countries, the artifacts of interest are authentic tribal and ethnographic implements used in divination and healing. My travels have taken me to out of the way places where there are no cars or hotels, some of the remote places are only reachable by foot, so I often take long treks into the bush to find some of these rare pieces, but mostly its a question of being in the right place at the right time, my collection consists of ethnographic material from animist tribal peoples of Africa, Asia and south east Asia.

Wood Statue Ancestor Classic Old Vintage Hand Carving Artefact Timor Indonesia
Collected VERY early in my field collecting career. I do not know the carver of this very distinctive statue. Unique / one of a kind. Hand carved in the highlands of central West Timor this commanding fellow is looking for a good home. Classic Timor Ancestor figure carving , unknown timber. 74cm tall x 15cm dia. 29″ tall x 6″ dia. 4600g / 10lb 2.4oz. Still carved today using little more than a machete and a penknife by those who continue the carving tradition. You are welcome to combine items. So if you gather multiple treasures please wait until I invoice you to pay. International buyers are welcome. This is great news as it is more economical to post small packets internationally now. A true shame that they have not done so for domestic. I had no idea at the time that I had stumbled upon an Aladdin’s cave of authentic traditional tribal textiles and treasures. I have been returning annually ever since [well most years] and been witness to many changes across the last 3 decades. Clearly none of us are sure what will happen post COVID, if there is such a thing, but I do know that the villagers, carvers and weavers up in the mountains will be grateful when some outside dollars comes into their informal/circular economy. I distribute reading glasses and nutritious food seeds as the soil in the western half of Timor is very poor and water a very precious resource. Please contact me if you wish to contribute.
