Beautiful sale consisting of unique pieces found in private homes, bringing together objects from various regions of Africa.
The objects we acquire come from family collections formed during stays in Africa during the colonial period or even afterwards, as well as from "runners" and collectors or enthusiasts of so-called primitive cultures.
We therefore encounter objects that are refined from the most aesthetic to objects that have been the subject of intense ritual use, presenting erosion, losses or a thick patina, charged with magic and tribal power.

Important information:
African art is an incredible cultural wealth, diverse and carrying deep meanings.
Each work tells a story, whether it is sculptures, masks, textiles or pieces related to magico-religious rites. This goes far beyond simple decorative objects; it is a way of understanding the traditions, beliefs and values of various African communities.

Indeed, embarking on the acquisition of African art objects is not only a question of beautiful or unique objects, but it is also an act of supporting a culture, a history and a future. It allows us to discover works rich in meaning and to engage in a global movement aimed at promoting inclusivity, diversity and the preservation of traditions while supporting contemporary artists.
Whether for aesthetics, investment or the desire to support a cause, African art represents an exceptional way to enrich one's life and one's collection.
