Description

This description has been translated and may not be completely accurate. Click here to see the original

A schematized anthropomorphic figure that adorns Kota bone baskets for protective purposes.
It is adorned with red copper and yellow brass strips, giving the sculpture a richness of color.
The eyes are represented by 2 copper disks, fixed at their centers by an upholsterer's nail.
Note that the hammered brass plates are missing, and we can see the impacts on the wood, beautiful old patina, wear and tear.
A very similar one at Sothebys => Sangu
I really like this fetish which looks smiling and has a very modernist design aspect!
Height 62 cm .
