Rare statuette, probablement Dakakari, Nigeria

Evoquant une poupée de fécondité, le personnage féminin est résumé à ses lignes essentielles - le buste au volume compact dominé par une tête phallique, le visage uniquement signifié par le nez protubérant et par les petits yeux percés qui l'encadrent. Profonde patine d'usage, faisant apparaître en relief la veinure du bois, sombre et légèrement huileuse.

Good condition overall. Wear consistent with age and use within the culture.
