The statue was given to me by one of the Belgian health workers who worked in the central part of Zaire. Where Kuba tribe predominates. She didn't ... moreknow how old the statue was but thought it was authentic. I have seen statues, similar in form, but of a female and child, that originated from Yombe tribe in north western Zaire, close to my place of work. Another suggestion is that it could be Yombe funerary figure. The statue is approx. 25 ½" tall and 10" wide(measured at the base) It weighs slightly over 11 lbs(without any packing materials) During the time I worked and lived in Liberia I started collecting African art. Both traditional and contemporary, I continued enlarging my collection when, few years later, I returned to work in Africa, in Zaire(now Democratic Republic of Congo) I collected these items for their decorative value and can not vouch that they were actually used in rituals, that did not interest me. All such items, which I am selling now on Ebay, were either purchased by me or received as gifts from my coworkers or missionaries I worked with while in Africa.

Tribal used African African headrest from the Luba. Congo, with depiction of a woman. Hand carved from a single piece of wood. With color pigements, groove ... moredecoration and colored glass bead necklaces. Height: 17 cm. The vast Luba territory. Comprising the entire southeastern part of the DRC, as far as Tanganyika and Lake Mweru, is uniform as regards language and culture, but racially mixed. Although the history of the Luba people is one of violence and warfare, their artistic style is characterized by harmonious integration of organically related forms. The splendid artistic achievements of the Luba are due to a felicitous intermingling of different racial and cultural elements, and to the high standards prevailing at the court. Luba arts counts amongst the finest that Africa has to offer. Artists occupied a privileged place in the hierarchy. The Luba artist carried a ceremonial ax on his shoulder. An emblem of prestige and of dignity of his position. Some apprentices would be recruited from among the deformed, who could neither hunt nor be warriors and who were believed to have a close connection.

FOR SALE IS A TOTEM STYLE STATUE FEATURING A MAN WITH HIS DRUM AND A WOMAN HOLDING HER BREASTS. APPROX 2FT TALL(SEE PICTURES FOR IDEA OF SIZE) THE CARVING ... moreIS VERY DETAILED AND THE STATUE OVERALL IS VERY BEAUTIFUL THIS SET IS FROM AN ESTATE OF A RENOWNED COLLECTOR THAT WAS PASSIONATE ABOUT AFRICAN ART. HE PURCHASED HIS PIECES FROM ALL OVER AFRICA AND THE REST OF THE WORLD. HE HAD HUNDREDS OF PIECES UPON HIS PASSING AND NOW YOU HAVE A CHANCE TO OWN WHAT HE TREASURED. The Yoruba people. Numbering over 12 million, are the largest nation in Africa with an art-producing tradition. Most of them live in southwest Nigeria, with considerable communities further west in the Republic of Benin and in Togo. They are divided into approximately twenty separate subgroups, which were traditionally autonomous kingdoms. Excavation at Ife of life-sized bronze and terracotta heads and full-length figures of royalty and their attendants have startled the world, surpassing in their portrait-like naturalism everything previously known from Africa. The cultural and artistic roots of the Ife masters of the Classical Period(ca. 1050—1500) lie in the more ancient cultural center of Nok to the northeast, though the precise nature of this link remains obscure.
