The Back Wall

Where the Wild Meets the Wonder, Where Craft, Character & Curiosity Come to Life

Towering with character and humming with quiet strength, The Back Wall is the final stop of your curio journey – but far from the least. This curated staircase of spirit and stone blends the proud with the playful, the symbolic with the strange. Every cubby holds a story.

This eclectic gallery of carvings is where the wild meets the whimsical, and craftsmanship tells a hundred little stories.

From the humorous to the majestic, these pieces span wired peacocks to panthers playing football, intricate lizards caught mid-hunt to turtles patiently sculpted from stone. Noah’s Ark floats alongside abstract swirls of fish and frogs lazing on lilies. A mosquito sinks its teeth into a wooden foot, while a hippo rests nearby — carved with so much grain, it almost breathes.

The materials themselves — shimmering serpentine stone, bold ebony, polished mahogany, wire and beads — shift with each shelf, offering a sensory journey of Africa’s wildlife and folklore, all under one wall.

This isn’t just decoration. It’s storytelling carved into every curve, beak, paw, and scale.

Whether it’s the Ark or a wire turtle, every piece earns its place in this living, laughing jungle.
