Old Unique Tribal Monkey Figure Statue Maybe Baule Anatomically Correct Antique
Up for bid is this very interesting old monkey statue with a nice patina. I purchased it at an antique flea market many years ago and am cleaning out some of my collection of vintage and antiques. I do not know anything about it other than what I am making guesses about after doing some research online. Please view all of the photos and make your own determination about where it is from and how old it is. I really just don't know. I just bought it because I liked it. All that being said after looking around online it seems to resemble the Baule Mbra statues from the Ivory Coast of Africa. Tribal art or something Pre Columbian although I'm not sure if they used metal such as this in their work. The examples of these I found were similar with the protruding teeth and wild looking eyes. He is seated with his paws on his knees, he appears ... moreto be anatomically correct. He has stylized circular eyes and a tail winding up his back. He is very unique and appears to be quite old although I am unsure of his age. It is made from a metal but I am not sure what type. It seems to be hollow inside so I'm not sure if it was cast or formed some other way. I suspect it's iron but it could easily be some other type of metal; it weighs close to 4 ounces. He measures approximately 3" tall x 2" long from tail to toe and about 2" wide. He does have some corrosion going on and has small holes that have formed here and there. I took pictures of them. Please view these as they offer the best description of his condition. As I mentioned he is hollow and there is a small hole on the bottom. When you shake him sand and dirt falls out. When I purchased him I didn't clean him I just put him on my shelf he is as found. Please view all the photos before bidding. Feel free to ask me any questions you may have. A neat piece for your collection for sure. Shipping is to the U.S. only. 1.RcmdId ViewItemDescV4,RlogId p4%60bo7%60jtb9%3Fuk.rp73%28b0g%60%60%3E1-13e0b608909-0xf4-

Baule Brass Crocodile Mask-Superb Ivory Coast African
Title, Baule Brass Crocodile Mask-Superb Ivory Coast African, Type of Object, Mask, Country of Origin, Ivory Coast, People, Baule, Materials, Brass/Copper alloy, Approximate Age, Unknown, Dimensions, Height is 10.5 inches, Overall Condition, Good:   Most of our pieces have spent decades on at least two continents. And have been treasured by several owners. Small splits, scrapes and cracks are a normal part of their patina attesting to their age and extensive use. We examine each piece carefully when we receive it and report any damage we find in our listings. Please look carefully at the pictures which may also reveal condition and damage. Damage/Repair, Some oxidation. Holes head, chips in eyes and in the back, hole in lower jaw Additional Information: A beautifully cast! This piece was cast using the ... morelost wax process. Unbelievably time intensive, and makes one-of-a-kind pieces. A casting mask in the form of a crocodile head with an open mouth showing pointed teeth, and open eyes. There are fine motifs around the eyes and the top. This lost wax cast of a copper alloy mask(bronze or brass) comes from the Baule people of the Ivory Coast in west Africa. Though masks are not normally used by the greater number of Akan peoples including the Asante or Fante, they are often found attached to various chiefly regalia prominent on sword sheaths or chiefly stools. They represent human and animal heads and are sometimes used as trophies. It is difficult to determine the age of this fine mask however the delicacy of the treatment of the facial details show that this was the product of a skilled craftsman and a long tradition of casting in West Africa.

Damage/Repair, A wonderful male ancestor figure holding his beard as an indicator of high rank and status in this world and in the spirit world! Baule Male Standing Figure Cote d'Ivoire African Art. The elaborate markings ... moreon their bodies front and back and their faces allied to the complexity and detail of the hair enhances their presentation as personages of high rank and social status. Facial features and hair are especially detailed. The figure finely balanced and the well-finished surface reflect Baule sensibilities of representation and aesthetics. This figure was used as an ancestor figure or a spirit of other world. In fact. Baule carved figures are known generally as waka sran, meaning a"person of woodâ. Such sculptures have multiple purposes and uses. They fall into two categories, the first represents the spirits of the wild(Asie Usu) that live in the bush beyond village boundaries. Figures of this category are owned by diviners known as Komien, who can read the future, heal as well as solve his client problems. The priest communicates with these spirits through such figures also considered as receptacles of spirits. Our piece may belong to this category because of the importance of encrusted sacrificial material on its surface. The second category of statues is composed of male and female figures that represent âspirit worldâ spouses for their owners.

African Tribal Rare Antique Baule Cast Bronze King and Bride Figures
Fine Baule Antique(circa mid- late 1800s) Cast Bronze Artifact. This is a rare. Museum quality authentic artifact(circa mid- late 1800s) in a shape of a King and Queen sitting on the chairs. The figures are about 18" and 16 1/2" high in excellent antique condition. The figures separate from their respective chairs. WEIGHT OVER 20 POUNDS African Bronze: The word Yoruba describes both a language and a group of people spread across Nigeria and Benin. Yoruba origins can be traced back to the holy city of Ife at the end of the first millennium. According to the Yoruba peoples’ myth of the origin. Of Ife, it was the place where the gods descended from the skies to populate the world. According to tradition, when the first Oba(Benin king) died his head was sent to Ife for burial, with Ife sending back a bronze head for the ancestors’ altar. ... moreFascinated by this creation Benin royalty beseeched the Ife king to send an artist who could teach the art of bronze work to Benin craftsmen. The Benin were already skilled working with this extremely rare metal called bronze but had trouble with the technique of casting. The Ife artist Ighea was sent and passed on the now legendary“lost wax” casting technique which enabled the Benin to create items using less bronze metal. Froo www.froo.com | Froo Cross Sell.
