Pulley - Baule - Costa do Marfim (Sem preço de reserva)
Baule, Ivory Coast: a typical heddle pulley with double (Janus) ancestor head.
A heddle pulley, in which a reel runs over an axle below. With a thread over this reel, the weaver can separate the warp threads of his woven piece into ‘fans’, using a foot pedal. Then the weft threads are ‘shot through’ these ‘fans’. Thus, fabric is created. In order to provide the weaver with ‘something beautiful’ to look at while working, the heddle pulleys are particularly finely crafted.
A finely Baule Pulley with fine detailed coiffure and great patina of use. Good condition with traces of wear and tear.
Provenance: former private collection from Germany.
Shipping within 24 hours after the payment is received. Tracking number will be provided. Signature upon delivery. Fully insured.
