Description from the seller

Hardwood cup – Kuba – Democratic Republic of the Congo

This hardwood cup, attributed to the Kuba people of the Democratic Republic of the Congo, is distinguished by the richness of its forms and the precision of its sculptural work. Carved from dense, solid wood, it features walls finely decorated with geometric motifs characteristic of Kuba aesthetics. The balance of proportions and the regularity of the ornaments attest to a mastered skill, where every detail contributes to the harmony of the whole.

In its sculptural appearance and decorative refinement, this piece finds its rightful place in a contemporary interior. It can be displayed as a work of art in its own right, where its motifs rhythm the space and bring a strong graphic dimension. Paired with sober, minimalist elements, it enhances the environment with an elegant cultural touch and a remarkable visual presence.
