"Bembe Fetish Statue Drc Republic Of Congo "
Very interesting Bembe fetish, a probably important ancestor with his majestic and haughty air, a headdress that seems to represent a colonial helmet (symbol of power and authority) he sits enthroned on a wild animal, dominating the animal world, hostile nature. Beautiful old patina, some small holes from treated woodworms. Classic scarification of the ethnic group, height 46 cm, ivory eyes. Former Belgian Serge Sheer collection.
