Very old Byeri Fang reliquary effigy bust, (more than half a century in the same collection). The object measures approximately 45 cm high without the base. It is an object made in a very dry hardwood and eroded in places by time. The thick, shiny patina is remarkable, with no noticeable suspicious odor or artifice. It is an object particularly neat in the characteristics codified by the ethnic group it represents and whose "strength" and presence are undeniable. A rare object of this quality, the simple blackened wooden base is of old workmanship.
