"Baoulé Monkey Fetish Statuette - Ivory Coast"
The posture of this type of fetish is traditional, carrying his offering tray which he proudly presents to us. This is Gbékré, the genius monkey that is placed at the edge of the fields so that this kind of fetishes ward off harmful spirits. His patina is crusty and completely covers the loincloth he wears. Finally, we can appreciate the traces of the offerings that the fetish has been able to accommodate over many years.
