Beskrivelse fra sælger
The collector april 2026: Tussian and neighbours like Turka and others, which depict anthropomorphic couples, are very similar in design but can be distinguished at a glance.
Senufo pendants almost always have a solid, unadorned base - see item of photo 1, leftHowever, the pendants could also be attached directly to the body using a cord.. In contrast, the bases of pendants from Burkina Faso (Tussyan, Turka, etc.) are decorated with hatching, waves or similar elements.
Furthermore, the Senufo depict a maximum of two anthropomorphic figures, whereas the Tussyan and their neighbours often depict three or four, and in very rare cases even more.
Provenance: Jean-Michel Huguenin Collection, Paris
