Very Old Baule Original Tribal Drum #Alobalo African art Ivory Coast
Item Specifications Type of Object Drum Materials Wood. Pigment Ethnic Group Baule Country of Origin Ivory Coast Approximate Age + 100 years Dimensions 23.6/15.3 inches(60/39 cm) Additional information Embellished drum from the Baule people of the Ivory Coast. Has 2 high reliefs depicting figures and abstract patterns with precision and balanced asymmetry. Characteristic of the Baule drums are these traditional decorative motifs to be admired by the audience. The drummer would use his hands as the beater, creating varied tones by shaping or cupping his hands, rubbing, slapping or thumping the drum head with his fingers and/or palms. Figures represent ancestors. The Baule are one of the Akan peoples. They moved west to the Ivory Coast more than 200 years ago and adopted sculptural and masking traditions from their neighbors. The Guro, Senufo ... moreand Yaure peoples. Although Baule figures had a wide range of use. The actual function of the figures is not easy for outsiders to determine. All were thought to be inhabited by spirits and did not represent ancestors. Small figures include the roughly carved bo usu that helped with hunting and the more refined blolo bla(spirit wife) and blolo bian(spirit husband) that, if well taken care of, helped their human partners in all areas of life. Asye usu figures were the abode of spirits associated with diviners. In ritual performances the spirit would come out to possess the diviner, causing a trance. The display of the figures would enhance and support the ensuing dance. Figures carved by the Attie(southern neighbors of the Baule and like them, members of the Akan people) share the careful detailing and virtuosity typical of Baule carving but have more muscular limbs and small pegs imitating scarification patterns.

Exquisite African Art - Large Baule "House" Goli Mask
Exquisite African Art- Large Baule"House" Goli Mask African Baule"House" Goli Mask Tribe: Baule Origin: Cote D'ivoire Approx Age: Mid-Late 20C Materials: Wood. Pigment Dimensions cm: 109 tall x 64 wide This Stunning large mask was field collected from a village near Bwaki. Cote D'ivoire. These were found in the village just proped up against the huts whilst the Goli festival is on going! Goli is the day-long spectacle that normally involves the whole village and includes the appearance of four pairs of masks. Music played on special instruments, and, ideally, the jojoyous consumption of a great deal of palm wine. Goli can be performed both as an entertainment and for the funeral of important men. The very characteristic, round-shaped“lunar” goli is surmounted by two horns. It was borrowed from the Wan for a celebration ... moreadopted by the Baule after 1900. Celebrating peace and joy, they would sing, dance, and drink palm wine. In the procession, the goli preceded the four groups of dancers, representing young adolescents. The goli would be used on the occasion of the new harvest, the visit of dignitaries, or at the funerals of notables. Boxes for the mouse oracle(in which sticks are disturbed by a live mouse, to give the augury) are unique to the Baule, whose carvers also produce heddle pulleys, combs, hairpins, and gong mallets. The Baule are members of the Akan peoples. Who inhabit Ghana and Côte d'Ivoire. During the 18th century, the Baule people migrated westward from Ghana when the Asante rose to power. The story of how they managed to break away from them has been preserved in their oral traditions. During the emergence of the Asante the Baule queen, Aura Poku, was in direct conflict with the Asante king, and when the Asante prevailed, the queen led her people away to the land they now occupy. Baule mythology holds that she had to sacrifice her son to the river god in order to complete the exodus safely. The male descendant of Aura Poku still lives in the original palac

The figure embodies a number of symbolic elements found in shrine figures; she is a mother and for the diviner she is a place of residence for the spirit of the bush to reside. Ready to be called upon by the diviner. Advised by the bush spirit(asye usu) the diviner will determine the reason that a woman is barren and direct her as to what she must do to bear children. It is the energy and power of the bush spirits that are contacted by the diviner and directed to help the woman. This offered figure exhibits typical Baule concern with the aesthetics of motherhood. She is standing on a stool. To be expected of a person of importance. Its surface shows traces of much handling that indicates long use. Classically-carved figures such as this mother and child among the Baule were very often owned by diviners known as Komien, who could tell the future, cure illnesses as well as solving local community problems. A great Baule figure to add to any collection! Recommended Reading: P.L. Ravenhill: Baule Statuary Art: Meaning and Modernization. Institute for the Study of Human Issues, Working Paper 5(

The heyday of this"trade" period was from the mid 1800s through the early 1900s when millions of these beads were produced and traded in Africa. The Venetians dominated this market and produced the majority of the beads sold during this time. The J.F. Sick and Co.

Old Bena Lulua Mask with Headdress. Songye Yoruba Luba Baule Dan Lega Yaka
Rare old Bena Lulua Mask with headdress. The Lulua(luluwa) people are in fact a collection of small groups whose home bordered by the larger Luba state and the related and. With whom they share a very similar culture, history, and language. Lulua masks, artifacts and figures are hard to get nowadays as their people's art vanishes with time. From my collection here is a rare, used in the village and striking old mask from the Lulua. The raffia and wicker hood from the headdress still intact. In my educated guess I estimate this mask to be 40 to 50 years old. An unrestrained and overwhelming looking mask! It measures 17 inches from north to south, not including the headdress.

Baule Colonial Figure: Film Maker
When there is a visual artistic expression that reflects a specific historical psycho-socio time period of a people that object is considered to be important. This figure is reminiscent of the time when Africa was dominated by European invaders or colonists. A sad time when most native tribal African art was considered to be absolute taboo. Uncivilized, the work of the devil and banned from further production by the invaders. Precious African articles were destroyed and stolen due to this ignorance. Despite this assault, the heart of the African artist survived. In West Africa, Baule artisans in Ghana after a while began to produce small painted wooden figurines of colonialists as they were viewed through African eyes. Today these figures are very popular and extremely undervalued in our opinion. On display is an older example of this craft. ... moreOur figure is a portrayal of a film maker complete with camera! The gentleman has a well detailed olive green suit, yellow decorated tie and sturdy black heeled shoes all topped off by the popular pith helmet. Perhaps he is filming animal activity or maybe taking note of a tribal celebration! More photos are available! Just ask! Dimensions: 10 inches tall x 4 inches deep x 3 inches across.

And maintained their traditional objects and beliefs longer than many groups in such constant contact with European administrators, traders, and missionaries. The Baule belong to the Akan peoples who inhabit Ghana and Côte d'Ivoire. According to a legend. During the eighteenth century, the queen, Abla Poku, had to lead her people west to the shores of the Comoe, the ... moreland of Senufo. In order to cross the river, she sacrificed her own son. This sacrifice was the origin of the name Baule, for baouli means“the child has died. Now about one million Baule occupy a part of the eastern Côte d'Ivoire between the Komoé and Bandama rivers that is both forest and savanna land. Baule society was characterized by extreme individualism, great tolerance, a deep aversion toward rigid political structures, and a lack of age classes, initiation, circumcision, priests, secret societies, or associations with hierarchical levels. Each village was independent from the others and made its own decisions under the presiding presence of a council of elders. Everyone participated in discussions, including slaves. It was an egalitarian society. The Baule compact villages are divided into wards. Or quarters, and subdivided into family compounds of rectangular dwellings arranged around a courtyard; the compounds are usually aligned on either side of the main village street. The Baule are agriculturists; yams and maize are the staples, supplemented by fish and game; coffee, cocoa and kola nuts are major cash crops. The importance of the yam is demonstrated

Full of character and well used. It was collected by us from a remote Baule village near Bongouanou Cote D'Ivoire and is approximately 70-80 years old. Kpan or Mblo Portrait mask. Baule Cote D'Ivoire. This mask from the Baule people of the Ivory Coast falls into a special grouping known as?portrait ... moremasks. Kpan or Mblo. They are said to portray an honored person of the village who is celebrated during a ceremonial dance known as â?Mbloâ?. It is an aesthetic performance in which this beautifully carved mask would be worn with a multicolored costume and danced in the most graceful manner by either the person it represents or a relative. The costume would have been attached to the mask by cords that was threaded through the holes at the back of the mask. These masks are danced to entertain during days that the Baule do not work and they will also appear to honor important visitors to the village. This classic mask recalls the artistry of the Baule artists of the past. The refined and finally carved face may be similar to the person for whom the mask was originally carved to represent. The hair or headdress on this mask is presented by a high chignon raised from the forehead. The closed eyes and pursed mouth indicate propriety and respect in keeping the eyes downcast with a sense of reserve that a mature woman will cultivate. The slight scarification along the forehead, on the eyes area may be for magical purposes or to submit to the idea of an aesthetic state

Additional information: Africa has been home to an active metalworking industry for 6.000 years, reaching back to the ancient Nubians and Egyptians who crafted artifacts in gold and copper. Ironworking ... morewas introduced by the Phoenicians around 800 BCE, and spread gradually across the continent: south into the Sudan and the Kingdom of Axum, then west to the Nok civilization and along the Atlantic coast. The metal was used to produce weapons, tools, amulets and other magical objects, and blacksmiths came to occupy a special position in society: respected and feared for their powers of metamorphosis. To this day, many West Africans will not look a blacksmith directly in the eye. Iron was not the only metal manipulated and shaped by the skilled hands of African metalworkers. The Ashanti kingdom in present-day Ghana was famous for its abundant gold reserves. And the Ashanti people crowned their king on a sacred golden stool said to have floated down from the heavens. The nomadic Tuareg traversing the Sahara region specialized in silver jewelry like the Agadez cross pendants which were passed down from father to son with the words, âI give you the four corners of the world, because one cannot know where one will die.â In Ethiopia, triangular or crescent-shaped telsum amulets, mergaf pendants with their dangling conical bells, Coptic crosses, and strands of hollow p

Monkey known as Mbra and sometimes referred to as Gbekre are considered as power figure used in many rituals especially during a trance divination where the spirit of Mbra assists the diviner in his effort to transmit the spirits of other world message to the ... moreliving in order to solve a problem during a consultation. This is the one rare occasion where an Mbra can be seen to everybody. When not in use Mbra is displayed on a shrine. Monkey figures are considered too powerful for women to see. And are kept hidden in the bush where they are fed with sacrificial offerings. The encrusted patina on this figure is from sacrificial offerings and ritual libations poured over the figure. The bowl was used as a container for magic elements. Some large, even sinister-looking, full-sized versions are thought to be carved by blacksmiths and used as guardians of special places or even entire villages. They usually have bared teeth and are also heavily encrusted with sacrificial offerings. In some case. The bowl is replaced by a carved egg. Egg is an important component of the divination process among the Baule. Egg is also part of the sacrificial elements dedicated to the spirits of divination. Recommended Reading: see Kerchache et al.
