非洲部落献祭雕像——姆比古石——20世纪中期 - 加彭 (沒有保留價)

Authentic African tribal votive figure carved from dark Mbigou stone (Gabonese steatite). The sculpture depicts a stylized standing female figure with elongated proportions, almond-shaped eyes, and refined minimalist facial features typical of Central African artistic traditions.

The figure is represented with raised hands positioned alongside the head, a posture often associated with ritual or symbolic meaning. The body features finely incised geometric decorations forming a grid-pattern loincloth and ornamental motifs along the hairstyle and back, demonstrating careful hand-carving craftsmanship.

The sculpture is made from dense Mbigou stone, a material traditionally used in Gabon for ceremonial and decorative carvings. The underside bears a hand-incised inscription reading “GABON TOULOUBA,” likely referring to a place of origin, collection reference, or historical collector marking.
