mid 20th centurySGD 2,400
This old Dhokra brass and bronze tribal couple sculpture is a handcrafted lost-wax casting from central and eastern India, ideal for collectors seeking authentic ethnic home décor and tribal art. The elongated figures, intricate jewellery, traditional headgear and textured garments highlight fine artisan detail, while the original dark patina and hand-finished surface make it a standout statement piece for living rooms, entryways and curated interiors.
Set on a patterned rectangular base and framed by two slender spears, this vintage dhokra figurine delivers strong vertical presence without feeling heavy, making it perfect as a focal point on consoles, sideboards or display shelves. Combining folk art charm with sophisticated detailing, this unique brass and bronze sculpture adds character, cultural narrative and timeless craftsmanship to any modern, boho or eclectic décor scheme.
Dhokra art is an ancient metal-casting tradition that goes back over 4,000 years to the Indus Valley Civilization. It is made using the lost-wax casting method, where each piece is handmade and unique. Today it is practiced by tribal artisans in West Bengal, Odisha, Chhattisgarh, and Jharkhand.
