About the Item
This sandstone Bactrian idol is a handcrafted reproduction inspired by ancient votive statues from the region of Bactria, in present-day Afghanistan. Carefully carved and finished with an aged patina, it features a trapezoidal body engraved with looped motifs and a stylized head with geometric features. A powerful symbol of continuity and spirituality, this piece reflects the essence of Bactrian protohistoric art. Ideal as a decorative sculpture or collectible object, it brings presence and cultural depth to any interior. The rough sandstone texture and two-part construction echo the ritual nature of the original artifacts. Each piece is unique, with hand-applied details that reinforce its ancient character.
