Lobi maternity figure, Burkina Faso
19.5" tall
wood, pigment, metal
being sold on consignment from a private collection, TX
$200
In their traditional context, Lobi maternity figures were generally prescribed by a diviner for a woman who wished to have a child.
This object shows no real signs of age or use; it is my opinion that it was made specifically for the collecting market.
