Product Description

Celebrate the timeless rhythm of rural India with this exquisite Golden Dhokra Tribal Monkey Bullock Cart figurine. Handcrafted in a remote village of Odisha, this unique bronze sculpture captures a playful tribal monkey guiding a traditional bullock and cart, symbolising age-old village cart transport and harmonious coexistence with nature.
Created using the ancient Dhokra casting method, a lost-wax metal casting technique dating back to the Bronze Age / Indus-Saraswati Valley Civilization (5000–10000 BC), this artwork carries thousands of years of living heritage. The golden tone comes from the extremely rare Dhokra casting method, making it a collector’s treasure.
Crafted entirely from scrap alloys, this eco-friendly and sustainable dhokra metal sculpture reflects responsible artistry while preserving indigenous craftsmanship. The figurine beautifully represents traditional bullock cart transport, once the backbone of Indian villages—also known as ox cart, old bull cart, or Indian bull cart.
Perfect as a decor statement, heritage collectible, or meaningful gift, this brass bullock cart inspired artwork brings rustic charm, culture, and history into your space.

Key Features

Handmade by Tribal Artisans: Crafted entirely by hand by tribal metalworkers (often from Bastar in Chhattisgarh, Odisha, West Bengal and nearby regions), making each piece unique.

Metal Alloy (Bronze/Brass): Made with a mix of brass/bronze (often bell metal with copper, zinc and sometimes nickel), known for durability and a warm metallic tone.

Antique/Hand-Patted Patina: May appear aged or darkened naturally or through finishing processes to give it an antique or tribal appearance.

Decoration Piece: Ideal as a home/office décor accent, placed on shelves, mantelpieces, cabinets or display niches.
