The Makonde people originate from Southern Tanzania and Northern Mozambique and are internationally renowned for their exceptional skill in wood carving.
This unique item is a Makonde adze, traditionally used for woodworking. The blade, showing signs of wear and damage, attests to its extensive use over time. The handle also bears heavy patination from frequent handling. What stands out is the intricately carved head at the end of the handle. Reflecting the artistic standards of the Makonde, despite its modest size, it exudes remarkable expressiveness.
Total height with stand 52 cm.
