Blolo-Bian. Fetish represented standing, arms free of the body and hands resting on the top of the thighs. Beautiful scarification marks decorate the forehead, around the eyes, the neck and the back. The hairstyle is in a striated shell and ends on the nape of the neck with a small braid. The knees are indicated by two small circles in relief. These sculptures represented the spouses in the ultra-terrestrial world.
Hard wood with a beautiful brown shiny patina.
50 cm.
