Presenting a lovely vintage African mounted wooden sculpture.
Made circa 1960 most likely in West Africa by the Luba Tribe.
It is a large wooden sculpture made from a solid piece of African hardwood with a block base and 2 arms extending upwards.
Most likely carved for ceremonial purposes or possibly as some sort of fertility symbol.
Mounted on a square metal base with central support upwards through the piece.
Clearly hand carved as is evidenced by the rough axe cuts.
