Royal cephalomorphic cut - Shoowa-Kuba - DR Congo

Remarkable Kuba head-shaped cup beautifully sculpted: numerous details, a very balanced face, a long ribbed neck, a chiselled foot.

This type of object was reserved for Kuba nobility and was as much an item intended to display its owner's social rank as a utilitarian object.
