About the Item
This striking set of vintage roof ornaments originates from a traditional Rumah Gadang house of the Minangkabau people in West Sumatra, Indonesia. Crafted from solid, timeworn hardwood, each piece is richly adorned with intricate floral carvings—symbols of growth, harmony, and cultural identity in Minangkabau artistry. The ornaments feature graceful lines and flowing botanical patterns, carved by hand with remarkable detail and care. Once part of a sacred architectural form, these elements have been carefully preserved and now offer new life as striking decorative pieces. Ideal for use as wall-mounted sculptures or statement objects in any interior space, they blend traditional Indonesian craftsmanship with timeless aesthetic appeal.
