Care Instructions

Dust with a soft dry cloth. Avoid direct moisture or prolonged sunlight exposure. Apply a light coat of natural wood oil or beeswax annually to preserve the wood and enhance the carved details.

Artisan Craftsmanship

Carved using traditional hand tools passed down through generations, this panel reflects the extraordinary skill of Naga woodcarvers — artisans who translate oral histories, myths, and community values into visual form. The depth and precision of each relief is achieved entirely by hand, without the use of machinery.

Heritage & Tradition

In Naga culture, the Hornbill symbolises warrior prestige, courage, and the spirit world, while the Mithun represents wealth, sacrifice, and communal prosperity. Panels like these were traditionally displayed in morung (community halls) as markers of status and collective identity. Bringing one home is an act of cultural preservation.

Styling Suggestions

Display as a dramatic entryway statement, a focal point in a living room gallery wall, or as a grounding element in a study or meditation space. Pairs beautifully with earthy textiles, brass accents, and natural stone surfaces — the Tesu aesthetic at its finest.
