About the Item

This handcrafted tribal trophy skull replica from Irian Jaya, Papua New Guinea, is a striking piece of ethnic decor that reflects the ancestral warrior traditions of the Papuan tribes. Made from sculpted resin and adorned with natural feathers, shells, seeds, resin, and beeswax, it authentically reproduces the ceremonial skulls once displayed as symbols of strength and honor. Each piece is hand-assembled using traditional techniques, with intricate details that evoke both mysticism and cultural depth. The crown of natural feathers, the central shell in the nasal cavity, and the eye sockets filled with organic materials reflect historic embalming rituals. This tribal skull decoration is ideal for collectors of primitive art, designers, or curators seeking a unique, symbolic statement piece. Each skull is unique, with slight handcrafted variations.
