African Wooden Figure Possible from the Congo Region 22 cm Hand-carved figure depicting a standing human character with an elongated neck, expressive facial features and a compact, stylised body. The figure displays a dark, aged patina with areas of lighter brown where the wood has worn over time. The simplified geometric forms, prominent facial features and robust carving give the sculpture a distinctive traditional African appearance. The surface shows visible signs of age and use, including cracks, abrasions and losses consistent with its worn condition. The figure may originate from the Congo region of Central Africa. A specific ethnic attribution or identification as a ritual object, such as a Nkisi, cannot be confirmed. Condition: Aged and heavily worn, with surface erosion, cracks and areas of damage. Please refer to the photographs for a detailed impression of the condition. Dimensions: Approximately 22 cm in height. Material: Wood. An interesting piece for collectors of African tribal art and ethnographic wooden sculpture.
