Description from the seller

Neckrest, Dan culture, Côte d'Ivoire. H.37cm

Fine Dan neckrest from Ivory Coast. It is well carved, the form is dynamic and balanced. The face is expressive, imbued with strength and determination. The sculptor has managed to bring this face to life. This is the work of a seasoned artist. Signs of wear from use. The patina is beautiful and deep.
Sold as is, see photos. A beautiful piece of old and authentic collection circa 1950.

Provenance: Galerie Noir d'Ivoire, Paris.
