Chips and scrapes, more chips to back edge, overall condition good. Thank you and please view my other items. BACKGROUND A central concept in Senufo religion is a female ancestral spirit called ancient mother. The sacred guiding spirit of each poro society. The Senufo produce a rich variety of sculptures, mainly associated with the poro society, to which all adult men belong and which maintains the continuity of religious and historical traditions, especially through the cult of the ancestors. Several types of mask are used depending upon the occasion. The kpelie, a human face with projections all around, is said to remind initiates of human imperfection. Danced by men, these masks perform as female characters. Painter Fred Uhlman words- Most of the artists I admired. Picasso, Modigliani, Deraini, to mention only a few, had collected African art and had been profoundly influenced by it. Shortly afterwards I bought the Baule Fetish and the Baule bobbin which are still two of the finest pieces in my collection. It is easy to see why I bought them and why from that moment I have never stopped collecting. The head of the bobbin or heddle- pulley which is after all only a functional object for the purpose of weaving seemed to me then and today as beautiful as a Greek goddess. The fet

The horns, which extend outward from the mask represent the speed and elusiveness of the bush antelope, the power of the buffalo.The holes around the mask indicate that a costume was attached to the mask. The Senufo are one of the dominant cultures in Cote d'Ivoire. And they extend across the border into Mali.

This is a large p olka dotte Senufo helmet mask"Kopnyungo" kno w in the West as a Fire-spitter. Very impressive array of tee th and tusks in ... morenice contrast to two cute chameleons on top. In 2009 portions of my collection were exhibited at the University of Maryland's Mosely Gallery- the exhibition was called"Honoring the Ancestors. Only 170 of my 300+ items could fit in the gallery. This mask was exhibited in that exhibition. I have included photos of that installation as well as other items I am selling or will be selling soon. Janiform(meaning 2-faced) example would have been worn at Poro ceremonies including funerals and would also have fought sorcery( dee bele) and harmful spirits( nikw’abele) At the top of this helmet is a small cup held by two chameleons. The mask was not complete until magical substances( wah) were placed into this receptacle. Additional Information: A superb piece. With matched four-horned faces on either side, one shared pair of ears, and paired figures on top pulling on the bowl which would have held magical elements. Red and white pigments have been applied over the black, but use has worn them away somewhat. Inner patina suggests wear. This large helmet mask known as"Kopnyungo. meaning literally a funeral head mask is worn by senior members of Poro at funerals of deceased and honored members. Large composite masks danced by the Senufo symbolically incorporate a number of different animal motifs to create an image that is aggressive and powerful. The crocodile mouth at the front of this mask incorporates warthog tusks coming out of the upper jaw represent the uncontrolled forces of the bush. This mask is most probably used by Senufo farmers and when worn the dancer would look out through the opening of the mouth. This is an excellent example of Senufo masks.

OLD SENUFO MALE FIGURE PROB FRENCH MISSIONARY COLLECTED RARE SUB-TYPE
96 Normal 0 false false false EN-US JA X-NONE This old Senufo male figure would have been carved for ritual use in an ancestor-cult setting. There are many well-known variations of Senufo statuary. The most famous probably being the iconic“rhythm pounder” or deble. This rare carving is a well-proportioned. Much smaller statue with naturalistic features, i.e. less abstract than those found on larger pieces associated with this tribe. It has a well-developed. Well-aged dark brown patina turning to a lighter where the grain has been exposed by old breaks and wood losses. A most unusual feature in this carving is the pair of horns rising out of the side of its crested head. The figure’s hands and genitals are missing. I purchased this Senufo figure from an antiques dealer in Bourges. France many years back. It had supposedly been part of a local ... morechurch’s modest ethnographic collection which would eventually be donated to a small museum of antiquities. A project that was abandoned around the 1950’s for lack of funds. I was told that this Senufo piece was brought back to France. From Africa, by a missionary during a much earlier period, probably during the very early part of the 20 th century.

Numerous age cracks, minor chips and scrapes, overall condition very good. Thank you and please view my other items. BACKGROUND Scattered across ... morethe West Coast. Mali and Burkina Faso, the million and a half Senufo tribes-people live principally off the fruits of agriculture and occasionally hunting. They inhabit villages governed by a council of elders, who in turn are led by a chief elected from their number. Tribal cohesion is reinforced through the rituals of the Poro society who initiate and educate the men from the age of seven onwards. Senufo theology is based on Koulotiolo, a powerful god, and Katieleo, a goddess mother, who through the rituals of the Poro society, regenerates the world. The Senufo were among the first tribal artists to be admired by the Western world. Their artistic output has been prolific- statues and masks characterized by realistic features or highly geometric shapes which emphasize rhythm and the opposition between void and full spaces. A vast array of Senufo everyday objects are adorned with figures- heddle pulleys, ointment boxes, doors and pieces of furniture, such as stools, chairs and beds. The most productive farmers are rewarded with decorated canes bearing small human figures or birds. Senufo metalworkers produced refined jewelry and ornaments, usually in copper, such as finger
AUTHENTIC AFRICAN PROBABLY SENUFO ANTHROPOMORPHIC HEDDLE PULLEY from Liberia
I obtained this heddle pulley from Cape Mount region in Liberia. It is a part of a narrow weave loom used extensively in West Africa. The strips of fabric woven on such looms are later stitched together to make garments or blankets. Traditionally the looms have been operated by men. At least in 1980's in Liberia, I have not seen a woman working at a loom. It was also mostly men that were wearing such garments. Women tended to dress in much thinner cotton lappas(wrap around) which were either printed or tie and die batiks. It is perhaps not surprising that most of the decorated heddle pulleys are in female form, even the anthropomorphic motif of a bird on this pulley is unmistakably female(cubist? Dimensions: approx. 9" tall and 4" wide I am not aware of any ritual meaning attributed to the pulleys but almost every activity in ... moretribal life seemed to require some kind of"medicine" to run smoothly. It was the medicine that needed to be"fed" by sacrifice(usually of a fowl) to be effective. The sacrificial fowl was not wasted though but usually ended up in the pot and eaten. Please do not hesitate to ask for additional information about the item or a different shipping method. Will combine shipping for multiple purchases whenever possible.

The ... moreoffering piece is a very fine example of Senufo metal objects that would hold a prominent place in a collection. It shows much handling and good age. The Senufo are a large dispersed population living primarily in Ivory Coast and Mali in small self-administered villages supporting themselves primarily as farmers. Though generally autonomous the villages are joined through a shared men?s secret society known as Poro or Pondo that is responsible for the initiation of young boys and men into different levels of society and to exercise social control and instruct members and initiates in religious wisdom and knowledge of the bush spirits. Among the Senufo funerary ceremonies serve as a primary occasion for the appearance art during different ritual displays. It is during the funerals of senior members of the male Poro society and woman's Tykpe society that masked dancers celebrate the life of the deceased and honor them as new ancestors. Also complexly sculpted masks in wood or cast in bronze or brass known as Kodoli-yehe(masks) are worn and danced by the young blacksmith initiates into Poro during funerals.

Overall Condition, Good, Damage/Repair, General wear, Additional Information: Africa continues to surprise with sculptures that are unique and objects that challenge.

And also extend across the border into Mali. The Senufo carve numerous male and female figures in a variety of positions, as well as many remarkable masks. Most adhere rather strictly to a known set of proportions, but some can be quite abstract. It is thought that many Senufo artworks are produced by"professional" carvers known to the village, and this accounts for the rather standardized"look" found in the majority of their figural objects. Among the Senufo statues of this category are known as rhythm pounder(Pombibele) figures. The rhythm pounders were used in both funeral and initiation ceremonies. A skillfully-crafted example of one of the most famous of West African sculptures. The so-called"rhythm pounders" are used at the funerals of important members of the"Poro" Society.

Damage/Repair, cracks in figure's head. In horse, in base, extensive wear Additional Information: This fascinating mounted male ... morefigure comes from the Senufo people of Ivory Coast and belongs to the category of excelent Senufo carvings. This exceptionally well sculpted horse and rider figure is rarely surpassed in the image and representation. However its distinctive shape and the emphasized masculinity of the mounted figure combined with its obvious age and the signs of use indicate a specific purpose and one that was allied to ceremonial or ritual activities over an extended period. Among the Senufo of the Ivory Coast art plays a prominent role in their ceremonial and ritual life. Fi gures such as this represent ancestors with some degree of prestige being mounted on a horse. Other mounted figures were used during Sando divination to carry messages to the spirit world. The diviner. Most often a woman, would cast a set of cowry shells and interpret them. She would then repeat the message to the mounted figures known as Tu’ule so they could carry it to the spirits and return with an answer for the client. The Senufo also have a wide range of objects that were associated to the men’s Poro secret society serving as symbols of office and rank as well as devices used during initiations. Mounted
