Democratic Republic Of Congo (zaire), Ndengese People, Mid-20th Century, Ancient Anthropomorphic Wooden Fetish With Shiny Patina
DRC (ex Zaire), Ndengese people, Mid-20th century, Anthropomorphic ancestor fetish in wood with a shiny patina
°°° Price can be reasonably negotiated °°°
The fetish represents a woman standing on a circular base with short, massive legs. The slender body accommodates a small chest, the arms detached from the body and adorned with bracelets, the hands resting on the abdomen and surrounding a protruding umbilicus. A long ringed blow receives a head with hair treated in long locks brought back, the face with almond eyes, the closed eyelids frame a flat nose overhanging a mouth with thin lips, the cheeks subtly scarified.
