Chamba Statue, Nigeria
Chamba Statue, Nigeria: The Chamba are best known for their cubist masks; their statuary is quite rare and bears similarities to that of their neighbors, the Mumuye, such as the crest on the head, a sort of skirt, stout, stylized legs—but with more linear, triangular geometric shapes, often found in the arms, and a bird-like face!
Very beautiful antique patina from use, first half of the last century, height 49 cm and 54 cm with the black wooden base; a few small chips visible in the photos.
