Description from the seller

Four slim African bronze statues. Probably Burkina Faso circa 1980

Four decorative slender bronze figurines, stylized with elongated forms and a rustic finish.
They measure 41 cm, 40 cm, 38 cm and 28 cm tall respectively.

Key Features
These figures are examples of African folk art, often inspired by traditional West African styles, such as Burkina Faso art.

Material: The figures are typically cast in bronze or brass and finished with a dark patina or a weathered finish. Lost-wax method.

Style: They are characterized by extremely elongated limbs and bodies, a style sometimes compared to the work of artists such as Alberto Giacometti.

Details: The figures often wear traditional clothing, such as ribbed or carved skirts. The specific pose of the figures, with hands on the abdomen or on the hips, is typical for this type of tribal sculpture.

Condition: in good condition with minimal signs of wear.

Photos are part of the description.
These were taken under artificial light, color may vary.

They are well packed, and sent by registered mail.
