Dimitri André

Luba Dance Rattle

Dance rattles such as these all function, with seeds inside the guord sections, but were also used for display. Elaborate coiffures and scarification patterns attested to the high rank of both the depicted figure and the owner of the rattle.

Object type: dance rattle
Tribe: Luba
Material: wood, calabash, seeds
Height: 25 cm
