Description from the seller
This spear is distinguished by its cowrie decoration and its carved head, elements traditionally associated in West Africa with protection, social status, prosperity, and the link with ancestors. Through their artisanal craftsmanship and materials, these pieces illustrate the encounter between function, identity, and symbolism in the cultures of West Africa.
