The Votos – Unique & Collectible

Introducing the VOTOS by Jean-Paul Lespagnard, small sculptural figures shaped as contemporary echoes of ancient ex-votos. Each piece captures a gesture, a belief, a spark of imagination. These silhouettes revisit a universal tradition where humans give form to hopes, fears, dreams and quiet wishes.

Born from the constellation created for the Brussels Grand-Place tree, the VOTOS bring that vast world into an intimate scale. Their outlines are simple, almost elemental, yet they carry traces of global mythologies, popular tales and everyday magic. They act as tiny guardians, spontaneous companions, fragments of a collective memory that crosses continents and stories.

Crafted with metalworkers, each VOTO reflects the dialogue between hand, material and imagination. Their presence feels light, playful, sometimes mysterious. They invite affection rather than interpretation. They stand as reminders of our shared impulse to invent, protect, celebrate and stay curious.

When you get a VOTO, you never know which one you will receive. One figure among 120 possibilities. A small surprise that turns every order into a moment of pure discovery. Some collectors build their own constellation over time, others let chance guide them. Each arrival feels like a reveal.

Displayed on a tree, on a wall or offered to someone you care about, a VOTO becomes a discreet anchor. A small presence that holds a bit of wonder, a hint of the imaginary that inspired it.

Each VOTO also supports a wider circle of care: 10 percent of what this project generates is shared with food banks, reinforcing the gesture of connection at the heart of the collection.

Discover the VOTOS by Jean-Paul Lespagnard, where a simple silhouette turns into a poetic companion for everyday life, and where the joy of the unknown becomes part of the experience.
