African Dogon Tribal Bronze Figure “Mother with Child" Burkina Faso, 1970s
Located in Salzburg, AT
Fantastique African Dogon tribal bronze figure “Mother with Child,” Burkina Faso, 1970s
The heavy figure shows a dynamic representation of a mother in motion
with her toddler in her arms.
The object is so appealing because it has been elongated and the legs, arms,
and headdress are exaggerated.
The ribbed headdress is central, and there are also large earrings and a
loincloth.
The casting is very detailed and finely crafted.
Due to its weight and size, we have mounted the object on an acrylic base.
Dimensions of the figure: W 18cm x D 6cm x H 69cm
Bronze figures associated with the Dogon people mainly originate from Mali and
Burkina Faso. The Dogon are known for their cosmogony and religious rituals,
which are reflected in their art. Dogon bronzes...

African Tribal Statue Osseyba or Reliquary Figure Kota Mohongwe Peoples Art
Located in Miami, FL
A fantastically hand-crafted piece by the Kota (or Bakota) tribe who are located in the northeastern region of Gabon. This figure, which is a Mahongwe reliquary figure as exhibited with its truncated almond-shaped face, is made of wound copper, hammered brass and wood. Reliquary figures were used as guardians to protect the revered bones of venerated family ancestors and leaders and ward off unwanted spirits. These figures are meant to embody intense powers and were also commonly used in communal rites and ritual performances.
This particular piece came from an American collector who traveled the African continent and collected African artifacts for over 50 years. This piece has a beautiful, organically aged patina acquired naturally over time and use. It is mounted on a custom wooden display stand. We believe it dates back to the early to mid-1900s but could be older. We are listing as 20th century because we did not have it appraised.
This African Tribal Statue Osseyba or Reliquary Figure Kota (Bakota) Mohongwe Peoples decorative art would clearly stand out as part of a collection or by itself in any setting. Truly unique, eye-catching and engaging.
Dimensions on stand: 25 3/4" High, 7" Wide, 5 1/2" Deep
