These black irons are altar objects, considered as a link between heaven and earth, used to protect the family, they could also be part of the soothsayer's gear! They are the representation of the viper Bitis. These altar irons are planted like sentinels either on the terraces of homes on personal altars or on collective altars outside. Rusty brown corrosion patina. The three are presented on a pretty ebony wood base.
Their size from left to right (including base):
H27.5cm H6cm
H22cm H6cm
H32cm H6cm
