"Large Bateba Lobi Statue Sacrificial Patina Burkina Faso"
Very interesting Lobi fetish from Burkina, 59 cm high with the base, good condition, the lower part in contact with the earth is eroded. It is a Lobi altar fetish recognizable by its beautiful and typical gray patina and the significant traces of sacrifices, blood drips (usually chicken). The face is very beautiful, well sculpted with the large eyes of the one who in a trance sees everything, the clairvoyant ancestor who will be able to answer the shaman's questions.
