About the Item

This 1950s African wooden figure embodies expressive craftsmanship and cultural symbolism. Hand-carved from solid hardwood, the sculpture depicts a stylized human form with raised arms and abstracted features, emphasizing strength and spiritual presence. The surface bears a rich, natural patina that highlights the grain and age of the wood, suggesting years of ritual or decorative use. Each detail, from the geometric proportions to the hand-hewn texture, reflects traditional carving techniques passed through generations. A striking decorative object, it stands as both an artful expression of heritage and a sculptural statement piece for modern or eclectic interiors.
