Description

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

Kota reliquary figure of the Mahongwe type, 51 cm long, not including the base. This object can be dated to the middle of the 20th century at the latest, an estimated dating in relation to the period of storage of the object for which we know the time frame.
It is a very dry hardwood core normally aged by time plated with copper or brass wire of the milking or salvage type. The style and patina of the sculpture are in keeping with the period and the ethnic group they represent. It is a beautiful and very aesthetic example. The metal base is of modern manufacture.
