Overview

A rare slice of Saharan nomadic heritage. This hand-carved wooden pole once served as a functional structural element in a tent of the Tuareg, now reborn as a sculptural statement piece that brings timeless tribal artistry into modern homes. With rustic patina, intricate tribal motifs, and the weathered warmth of aged wood, it’s a striking object of heritage, character, and global style.

Artisan Craftsmanship

More than just décor, tent posts like this once held up tents made of goatskin or woven mats, the mobile homes of Saharan nomads. Beyond structural use, their carved surfaces often told stories of family, clan or tribal identity. This piece is a genuine vintage artifact, carrying history and the wear of life in the desert. A true collectible full of soul and imperfection.
