西非 手工雕刻 木质 仪式勺 拟人形象 - 拟人化的仪式勺 - 西非 (沒有保留價)

A striking hand-carved wooden ritual spoon featuring a stylized anthropomorphic figure forming the handle. The elongated figure displays refined geometric facial features, including almond-shaped eyes, a narrow nose, and a calm, symmetrical expression. The top is crowned with an openwork triangular form, adding sculptural elegance and symbolic presence.

The handle is decorated with incised linear patterns.
Such spoons are known in various West African cultures, often associated with ritual, status, or ceremonial hospitality. The refined carving and balanced proportions give the piece both ethnographic and decorative appeal.
